Heard Sri. G.M. Ananda, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Sri. Siddharth Baburao, learned Additional Government Advocate appearing for respondents 1 to 4. 4. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties and on perusal of the finding recorded by the respondents 2 and 3 in the impugned orders, the same would indicate that the change of entries in the revenue records has been made pursuant to the Compromise Decree passed in Original Suit No.646 of 2009 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Nelamangala. In this regard, though the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner was not a party in the said Original Suit No.646 of 2009, however, it is forthcoming from the impugned order that the sister of the petitioner has filed Original Suit No.85 of 2013 on the file of the Civil Judge (Sr.Dn.), Nelamangala and the - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:21796 WP NO.16683 OF 2025 same came to be dismissed for default. In that view of the matter, as the change of entries has been made by the respondent-Authorities in terms of the Compromise Decree passed in Original Suit No.646 of 2009 on the file of the Senior Civil Judge, Nelamangala, I do not find any infirmity in the order passed by the respondent-Authorities. Therefore, it is open for the petitioner to challenge the Compromise Decree passed in Original Suit No.646 of 2009, if so advised, in a manner known to law. With this observation, writ petition stands disposed of. SD/- (E.S. INDIRESH) JUDGE ARK List No.: 1 Sl No.: 37
