In that view of the matter, the writ petition stands disposed of granting liberty to the petitioner to approach a private registered surveyor to get a 11E sketch prepared and thereafter approach the Tahsildar for entering the name of the petitioner in accordance with law. Ordered accordingly. Sd/- (R DEVDAS) JUDGE KLY CT: JL
