WRIT PETITION NO. 27701 of 2025 ORDER:

He has submitted an F- Line application No.DER012501568915, dated 08.09.2025 for issuance of pattadar passbook and web land entries. Despite the petitioner’s persistent requests, the inaction of the respondent authorities in processing the petitioner’s application has constrained him to approach this Court. 2. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for respondents has submitted that appropriate action will be taken on the application submitted by the petitioner, in accordance with law. 3. Considering the submissions of both the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue, without going into the merits of case, this Court deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing concerned authorities to consider the F-Line application No.DER012501568915, dated 08.09.2025
