Smt. G. Padma, Vs The Tahasildar

THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.21193 of 2012

ORDER:

The petitioner claims to have submitted an application on 11.01.2012 to the Tahsildar, Chinnagadili, 1^st respondent herein with a request to cause survey of the land admeasuring Ac.3.90 cents in Survey No.28/2 of Kommadi Village, Zone-I, Ward No.4, GVMC, Visakhapatnam and to fix the boundaries thereof. The grievance of the petitioner is that no action has been taken thereon.

¶4

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue.

¶5

The Andhra Pradesh Survey and Boundaries Act, 1923 and the Rules made thereunder prescribe the procedure for survey of lands and fixation of boundaries. On submission of an application and payment of prescribed fee, the authority concerned has to undertake the survey and fixation of boundaries. The petitioner states that she has made an application on 11.01.2012 and so far, no action has been taken thereon. By any standard, the inaction for such a long time cannot be countenanced. If the application filed by the petitioner was defective, in any manner, respondent No.1 ought to have informed the same.

¶6

Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing respondent No.1 to conduct survey of the land admeasuring Ac.3.90 cents in Survey No.28/2 of Kommadi Village, Zone-I, Ward No.4, GVMC, Visakhapatnam within a period of six (6) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Respondent No.1 shall issue notice to the affected parties and he may require the petitioner to comply with the deficiencies, if any, in the application.

¶7

The miscellaneous petition filed in this writ petition also stands disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
