UMASANKAR LOKANADHAM Counsel for the Respondent(S): 1.GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following: 2 ORDER: 1. The petitioners claim that they are the owners and possessors of land admeasuring an extent of Ac.0.30 cents in Sy.No.9-75 of Rajapuram Village, Guppidipeta Grama Panchayat, Polaki Mandal, Srikakulam District, having purchased the same by virtue of unregistered sale deed dated 16.03.1986 from one Chitturi Nukayya. Subsequently, in the year 1992, the vendor’s son raised a dispute against the sale of the property to the petitioners. However, they have compromised and settled the issue by paying another sale consideration to the vendor’s son by way of another unregistered sale deed dated 05.05.1992. The petitioners further claim that since the date of purchase, they have been in possession and enjoyment of the said property. It is further case of the petitioners that while so, the 4^*^ respondent came to the subject land, along with his staff and tried to dispossess the petitioners by stating that the petitioners are in unauthorized possession of the land and as the same is classified as Tank’ in revenue records. The petitioners further claim that they are the bonafide purchasers of land for valid consideration, and since respondents No.4 and 5 are trying to interfere with their 3 possession without issuing any notice, the petitioners approached this Court by filing the writ petition. 2. On the other hand, Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue placed instructions dated 14.04.2025 furnished by the 4**^ respondent. On perusal of the said instructions, it is stating that the subject land is classified as Tank’ in the revenue records and the same was resumed from the petitioners and handed over to the Mandal Parishad Development Officer, Polaki, for reclamation under MGNREGS. It is further contended that the petitioners by suppressing the real facts of the case, approached this Court. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue. 3. 4. Perused the material on record. On perusal of the averments made in the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition, it is clear that the petitioner has purchased the subject property under unregistered sale deeds. It is further stated in the affidavit that the vendor of the petitioners was assigned the subject land. In support of the claim of the petitioners, nothing is placed on record to show that their vendor 5. 4 was assigned the subject land, so as to claim that the petitioners are bonafide purchasers. Further, on perusal of the counter affidavit, it is categorically stated that the subject land is classified as tank. It is further stated no assignment was granted to anybody including the vendor of the petitioners in respect of subject lands. It is further averred that the petitioners have purchased the subject from the one of the encroachers and the same will not confer title on them. It is further stated that the subject land was resumed from the petitioners and therefore the question of dispossessing the petitioners does not arise. 6. In view of the above, there are no merits in the writ petition, accordingly the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, pending applications, if any, shall stand closed. Sd/- P.VINOD KUMAR ASSISTANT REGISTRAR //TRUE COPY// SECTION OFFICER To, 1. One CC to Sri Umasankar Lokanadham Advocate [OPUC] 2.
