While things stood thus, one Avula Venkata Krishnaiah instituted a suit in O.S.No.94 of 2008 before the Senior Civil Judge, Kadapa seeking for partition of the plaint schedule property into two equal shares. Pending the suit, the parties entered into a compromise and the same was referred to the Lok Adalat Bench and the same was decreed by passing an Award dated 11.03.2011, allotting an extent of Ac.0.60 cents out of Ac.1.57 cents in favour of the plaintiff therein and remaining extent of Ac.0.97 cents in favour of the petitioner herein (who is defendant in the suit). Pursuant to the said order, the petitioner herein approached the local surveyor to measure and sub divide the land as per the terms of Lok-Adalat. Thereafter, the petitioner came to know that the land on ground is only to an extent of Ac.1.20 cents. As such, the petitioner herein and the plaintiff in the suit requested the local surveyor to divide the land into two shares. Thereafter, the petitioner herein filed a PGRS application dated 03.07.2023 to the respondents seeking correction of entries in revenue records in respect of her share in the subject property. Even after receipt of the said application, the respondents authorities did not choose to consider the same. Thereafter, the petitioner herein again submitted a representation dated 10.02.2025 seeking for correction of entries in the revenue records. Even after receipt of the said representation, the respondent authorities neither considered the same nor issued any proceedings. Hence, the writ petition. 5.
