KRISHNA REDDY H.R., ADVOCATE FOR R8 TO R245) THIS WRIT PETITION IS FILED UNDER ARTICLES 226 AND 227 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA PRAYING TO QUASH THE ORDER DATED 15.04.2025 IN CASE NO. MDC.RHM. LND.1311/2023 PASSED BY THE SECOND RESPONDENTS DEPUTY COMMISSIONER VIDE ANNEXURE -N. THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING IN 'B' GROUP, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE E.S.INDIRESH - 52 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 ORAL ORDER In this writ petition, the petitioners have assailed the order dated 15.04.2025 (Annexure-N) passed by respondent No.2-Deputy Commissioner. 2. The relevant facts necessary for the adjudication of this writ petition are that the land bearing Sy. No.203 of Gejjigere Village, Maddur Taluk, measuring 108 acres and 15 guntas, was classified as Gomal land. Out of the said land, an extent of 15 acres was granted in favour of Sri B.M. Lingappa by order dated 16.07.1964 (Annexure-A). Pursuant to the grant, the Saguvali Chit was issued as per Annexure- B, and the Grant Certificate was issued as per Annexure-C. 3. It is further stated that Condition No.8 of the Grant Certificate stipulated that the grantee shall utilize the land exclusively for establishing a dairy - 53 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 farm and condition No.9 provides that, grantee shall not alienate the land for a period of 15 years from the date of grant. 4. It is also stated in the writ petition that a partition was effected in the family of the original grantee, and the mutation entries were accordingly effected in favour of the respective sharers as per Annexure-E. Thereafter, the legal representatives of the original grantee sold an extent of 5 acres under a registered Sale Deed dated 02.07.1996 (Annexure-F) in favour of first petitioner. On the very same day, the original grantee, Sri B.M. Lingappa, executed a registered Sale Deed in favour of the second petitioner conveying an extent of 5 acres, as per Annexure-G. Likewise, the daughter of the original grantee executed a registered Sale Deed dated 02.07.1996 conveying an extent of 5 acres, as per Annexure-H. - 54 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 5. It is the case of the petitioners that, after the execution of the registered Sale Deeds at Annexures-F, G and H, they came into lawful possession and enjoyment of the respective portions of the land. Thereafter, phodi and durasth proceedings were conducted, and separate survey numbers were assigned in favour of the petitioners, as evidenced by Annexure-J series. 6. In the meanwhile, one Sri B.L. Mariyappa, a resident of Halebudanur, filed R.A. No.46/1996-97 before respondent No.2 challenging the grant made in favour of the original grantee, Sri B.M. Lingappa. The said appeal came to be dismissed by respondent No.2 by order dated 17.03.1997, as per Annexure-K. 7. It is the grievance of the petitioners that the issue regarding the alleged violation of the conditions of the grant stood concluded by the order at - 55 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 Annexure-K, which has attained finality. Therefore, respondent No.2 had no jurisdiction to reopen the very same issue and pass the impugned order at Annexure-N. Being aggrieved by the said order, the present writ petition has been filed. 8. I have heard Sri. Y.R.Sadasiva Reddy, learned Senior Counsel appearing on behalf of learned counsel Sri. Rahul S. Reddy, for the petitioners; Smt. B.P. Radha, learned Additional Government Advocate appearing for the respondent-State; Sri. Chandrakanth R. Patel, learned counsel appearing for the private respondent Nos. 6 and 7 and Sri. Krishna Reddy H.R., learned counsel appearing for the respondent Nos. 8 to 245. 9. Sri. Y.R.Sadasiva Reddy, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the petitioners, by referring to the Grant Certificate (Annexure-C), the subsequent - 56 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 revenue records standing in the name of the original grantee, and the registered Sale Deeds produced at Annexures-F, G and H, contended that the petitioners are the lawful owners in possession of the land in question. Learned Senior Counsel further submitted that respondent No.2, while deciding R.A. No.46/1996-97, had already considered the allegation regarding violation of the conditions of the grant and, by order dated 17.03.1997 (Annexure-K), held in favour of the original grantee. The said order has attained finality. Therefore, respondent No.2 had no jurisdiction to initiate fresh proceedings on the very same allegations and pass the impugned order. Accordingly, learned Senior Counsel sought interference by this Court. 10. Per contra, Smt. B. P. Radha, learned Additional Government Advocate appearing for the - 57 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 respondent-State sought to justify the impugned order at Annexure-N. She contended that the original grantee had violated the conditions of the grant not only by failing to utilize the land for the purpose of establishing a dairy farm but also by alienating the land within the prohibited period of 15 years. Learned Additional Government Advocate further submitted that no prior permission had been obtained from the competent authority before effecting the alienation in favour of the petitioners. On these grounds, she sought dismissal of the writ petition. 11. The learned counsel appearing for the private respondents, who claim to have subsequently purchased portions of the land from the petitioners, supported the submissions advanced on behalf of the petitioners. - 58 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 12. Sri. Chandrakanth R. Patel, learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent Nos.6 and 7, namely the wife and daughter/legal representatives of the original grantee, Sri B.M. Lingappa, has also supported the case of the petitioners. 13. In the light of the submissions made by the learned counsel appearing for the respective parties, it is not in dispute that the land in question was originally granted in favour of Sri B.M. Lingappa. Pursuant to the grant, the revenue records were mutated in his name. It is also evident from the material placed on record that a partition was effected in the family of the original grantee, pursuant to which the respective shares were allotted to the family members. Thereafter, the original grantee and his legal representatives sold their respective shares in - 59 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 favour of the petitioners under the registered Sale Deeds produced at Annexures-F, G and H. 14. It is pertinent to note that proceedings had earlier been initiated against the original grantee in R.A. No.46/1996-97 before respondent No.2 on the allegation that the land had been alienated within the prohibited period of 15 years and that the conditions of the grant, particularly with regard to establishing a dairy farm, had been violated. The said proceedings culminated in an order dated 17.03.1997 (Annexure- K), whereby the appeal came to be dismissed. The said order has attained finality. 15. In that view of the matter, I am of the considered opinion that the issue relating to the alleged violation of the conditions of the grant having already been adjudicated and attained finality under Annexure-K, respondent No.2 had no jurisdiction to - 60 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 reopen the very same issue by initiating fresh proceedings against the original grantee or the subsequent purchasers. 16. In this regard, the law declared by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Faime Makers Private Ltd., vs. District Deputy Registrar Co- operative Societies (3) Mumbai and others reported in (2025) 5 SCC 772 squarely applies, wherein it has been held that the principle of res judicata is equally applicable to quasi-judicial proceedings. Accordingly, the impugned order dated 15.04.2025 (Annexure-N) passed by the respondent No.2-Deputy Commissioner cannot be sustained and is liable to be set aside. 17. It is also evident from the records that third- party rights have subsequently been created in respect of the land in question. Following the law laid - 61 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010339512025 NC: 2026:KHC:39290 WP No. 15285 of 2025 down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of State of M.P and others vs. Nandlal Jaiswal and others reported in (1986) 4 SCC 566, this Court is of the opinion that, in exercise of its jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, it is appropriate to hold that the respondent-authorities have no jurisdiction to interfere with the registered Sale Deeds executed in favour of the petitioners and the subsequent purchasers. 18. Accordingly, the writ petition is allowed. The impugned order dated 15.04.2025 (Annexure-N) passed by respondent No.2-Deputy Commissioner is hereby quashed.
