THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE D.RAMESH WRIT PETITION No.36167 of 2025
ORDER:
Aggrieved by the orders passed by the 4th respondent dated 27.11.2025, the petitioner has filed the present writ petition.
2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the respondents.
3. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the 4th respondent issued a notice on 16.10.2025 without mentioning any provision of law. Though the petitioner submitted her explanation, the same was not considered, and the impugned orders were passed cancelling the pattas that were standing in favour of the petitioner under Section 5(2) of the Andhra Pradesh Rights in Land and Pattadar Pass Books Act, 1971 (as amended by Act No.8 of 2025) (for short ‘the Act’).
4. A perusal of the impugned orders clearly discloses that the 4th respondent has passed the orders under Section 5(2) of the Act. If the petitioner has any grievance, the only remedy
4
available is to file a revision under Section 9 of the Act before the appropriate authority.
5. Considering the said submissions, the Writ Petition is
disposed of, granting liberty to the petitioner to file a revision under the provisions of the Act within a period of one (01) month. If such revision is filed, the authorities may consider the same by following due procedure under law. The petitioner is also granted liberty to file an interlocutory application along with the revision and the same may be considered as expeditiously as possible pending disposal of the revision. Till disposal of the interlocutory application, the respondents are directed not to take any further action pursuant to the impugned orders.
6. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed. _______________________ JUSTICE D.RAMESH
