But no action is being taken on the part of the respondent authorities and the respondent – Nazul Officer is not taking steps to execute registered conveyance deed in favour of the petitioner and her children. The issuance of conversion deed by the respondents-State after the payment of all dues/ amount had given a legitimate expectation to the petitioners that the conveyance deed would be executed by the respondent State in her favour, but only on account of the fact that the petitioner did not approach within reasonable period time, as she went to Allahabad because of some ongoing family dispute, therefore she could not present, hence, respondents authorities declined to execute registered conveyance deed in favour of petitioner and her children. It is next submitted that the petitioner has filed representtion (Annexure P-4) dated 19.07.2024 before respondent No. 4 and representation (Annexure P-5) dated 22.12.2025 before respondent No. 2 – Collector, Raipur, District Raipur (C.G.), despite that the same have not been decided yet, hence, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this petition may be disposed of directing respondents No. 2 & 4 to decide representation filed by the petitioner within specific time frame. 3.
