S. No. 165 Supp. Cause List IN THE HIGH C0URT 0F JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT SRINAGAR WP(C) 1161/2025 CM(3059/2025) OVAS QAYOOM BHAT …Appellant/Petitioner(s) Through: Petitioner present in person. Vs. UNION TERRITORY OF J AND K (REVENUE) AND ORS. ...Respondent(s) Through: None CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE WASIM SADIQ NARGAL, JUDGE ORDER 20.05.2025 1. The petitioner has drawn the attention of this court to the order dated 08.05.2025 passed by the 1st Appellate Authority, by virtue of which the information sought by the appellant/petitioner herein was made available online in order to maintain the transparency and keeping the general public informed and in the aforesaid backdrop the Government has put the information on public domain. 2. The petitioner through the medium of the aforesaid order passed by the 1st Appellate Authority dated 08.05.2025 has been conveyed that if the appellant/petitioner herein intends to obtain the certified copy of the mutation, he may apply online on www.jkrevenue.nic.in by paying the requisite fee. Accordingly, the appeal preferred by the petitioner which was devoid of any merit stood dismissed. 3. When the petitioner was confronted with the prejudice caused with the issuance of the aforesaid order, he could not satisfy this court and instead pleaded that the information which is sought by him is not available online and this is the precise reason that he has filed the instant petition. 4. The petitioner was directed to refer to the specific pleading in this regard, but he could not give any satisfactory reply and thus, the writ petition which has been preferred is utterly misconceived and is not maintainable in the eyes of law. Since the appellate authority has conveyed in unambiguous terms that the whole information is available online and is in public domain and the said information can be obtained by the petitioner and in case the petitioner intend to obtain the certified copy of the mutation then he has every right to apply online by paying the requisite fee. It is not the case of the petitioner that he has applied online and has not got the copy of the mutation or else he has applied for the certified copy by paying requisite fees and yet not received the same. 5. The petitioner after having accepted the order passed by the appellate authority has filed the instant petition which is not maintainable being devoid of any merit. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition which is misconceived is dismissed being bereft of any merit however, this will not come in the way of the petitioner to approach the competent authority by way of appropriate remedy in case the grievance of the petitioner is not redressed. 7. Writ petition is accordingly dismissed. (WASIM SADIQ NARGAL) JUDGE SRINAGAR 20.05.2025 Sakeena
