THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE E.S.INDIRESH ORAL ORDER In the present writ petition, the petitioner has assailed the order dated 16.07.2008 passed by Respondent No.3 (Annexure-P), the order dated 16.12.2020 (Annexure-X) passed by Respondent No. 2, and the order dated 28.08.2024 (Annexure-Z) passed by Respondent No. 1. The petitioner has, inter- alia, sought a direction to the respondents to enter his - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:32461 WP No. 35242 of 2024 name in the revenue records in respect of the land in question. 2. I have heard Sri. K.R. Nagaraja, learned counsel for the petitioner; Sri. Spoorthy Hegde .N., learned High Court Government Pleader appearing for the respondent-State and Sri. Kiran Kumar H.S., learned counsel for the respondent Nos. 5 to 8. 3. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties, it is noticed that the petitioner claims title over the property on the basis of the grant order produced at Annexure-H, whereby the grant made in his favour in respect of land bearing Sy. No. 28 of Ammanahalli Village, Tumakuru Taluk, was confirmed by order dated 04.04.2007. On the other hand, the private respondents claim title over the very same property on the strength of a registered Sale Deed dated 26.12.2007. - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:32461 WP No. 35242 of 2024 4. In that view of the matter, I am of the opinion that no interference is called for in the present writ petition, as the entries in the revenue records have been effected pursuant to a registered Sale Deed. The question of title cannot be adjudicated in the exercise of writ jurisdiction. 5. However, it is open to the petitioner to establish his right, title, and interest over the land in question before the competent civil court or before the appropriate forum, in accordance with law. Accordingly, the writ petition stands dismissed. SD/- (E.S.INDIRESH) JUDGE SB List No.: 1 Sl No.: 48
