In view of the order proposed to be passed by me, I do not wish to deal with the various contentions and averments contained in this Writ Petition. Suffice it to notice that from the very prayer of the writ petitioner which was made to the Joint Collector, it becomes explicitly clear that he is seeking the Joint Collector to hand over 72 ankanams of land to him. It is common knowledge that six ankanams make Ac.0.01 cent and consequently, 72 ankanams make Ac.0.12 cents of land, which is exactly what the petitioner has stated that his grandmother and grandfather have acquired at market price. Therefore, the petitioner lost possession of this land, quite possibly, due to unjust reasons and factors. On the contrary, Respondents 1 and 2 contend that they are the bona fide purchasers for valuable consideration of the land in question and that they cannot be dispossessed of the land in their possession without recourse to law. The Joint Collector has painstakingly considered the entire matter at great depth. Ultimately, he has noted that the land allotted to the grand parents of the petitioner has been sold away by 3rd parties and hence, the petitioner has been advised to work out his remedies before an appropriate civil Court.
