It is the contention of the Writ Petitioners that in the year 1980 itself, the Official Respondents have highhandedly laid the road in the property belonging to the Writ Petitioner. 4. Learned Counsel for the Writ Petitioners has drawn the attention of this Court to the Revenue Record (Ex.P.1), indicating that the name of the Writ Petitioner is mentioned in respect of certain survey numbers. On enquiry made by this Court whether the Writ Petitioner has at all got the land surveyed to firstly identify his property and also the location thereof, which would in fact be clinching the issue, the learned Counsel for the Writ Petitioners has submitted that, because of illiteracy on the part of the Writ Petitioners, they have not sought any Survey Report. 5. 6. Admittedly, the road has been laid in the year 1980, and if the said road has been laid in the property belonging to the Writ Petitioner, the least that the Writ Petitioners could have done is to seek a Survey of the land and obtain a Survey Report in this regard. Since the same has not been done, this Court is of the view that this Writ Petition cannot be entertained. 7. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. However, liberty is granted to the Writ Petitioners to seek a Survey of the land, and if it so emerges that the road has been laid on the Petitioner’s 8. I 4 subject land, the Writ Petitioners available to them under law. Interlocutory Applications, if any, stand closed in terms of this order.
