The present petition has been preferred by petitioner under Article 226 of the Constitution of India against the inaction and apathy of respondent No.4, the Nayab Tahsildar, Bodri, Tehsil Bodri, District Bilaspur (CG), as despite the lapse of more than ten months, no order has been passed on the application filed by the petitioner under Section 129 of the Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code, 1959 (hereinafter referred to as “Act of 1959”) seeking demarcation of her land. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the owner and occupant of land bearing khasra No.380/3, admeasuring 0.150 hectares, situated at Village Nagpura, RNM Bodri, Patwari Halka No.02, Tehsil Bodri, District Bilaspur. She further submits that respondent No.6, who is an owner of adjacent land of petitioner, is creating dispute concerning the petitioner’s land, therefore, the petitioner filed an application under Section 129 of the Act of 1959 for demarcation, which was registered as Revenue Case No.202510076100009/A-12/2025-26 on 07.04.2025. However, no order has been passed by respondent No.4 on the said application. Hence, learned counsel prays that this petition may be disposed of with a direction to respondent No.4 to pass an appropriate order in the aforesaid revenue Case pertaining to the demarcation of land of petitioner within a stipulated period. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the State/respondents No.1 to 5 has no objection to the prayer made by learned counsel for the petitioner. 5. Considering the fact that the application for demarcation of land was filed by petitioner on 07.04.2025 and more than 10 months have lapsed without any demarcation being carried out, such inaction cannot be 3 appreciated. Accordingly, this petition is disposed of directing respondent No.4 to pass an appropriate order regarding demarcation of land of petitioner within a period of 45 days from the date of receipt/submission of a copy of this order. 6. With aforesaid observation and direction, this writ petition stands disposed of. 7. Pending interlocutory application(s), if any, also stands disposed of. No order as to cost(s).
