JUSTICE R DEVDAS ORAL ORDER Learned High Court Government Pleader takes notice for respondent Nos.1 and 2. Notice to respondent No.3 is not necessary. - 3 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:6362 WP No. 3104 of 2026 2. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that when the petitioners' mother, Smt. Rathnamma, filed writ petition No.2199/2025 seeking to quash the preliminary notification dated 13.12.2006 issued by the respondent-State for acquisition of the lands under Section 17 of the Karnataka Urban Development Authorities Act, 1987, on the ground that the preliminary notification was issued in the year 2006, but subsequently, no further action has been taken, the final notification has not been issued, and the award has not been passed and therefore, the preliminary notification should be quashed, this Court found that the revenue records do not stand in the name of the petitioners. What is recorded in the RTC in respect to the land in question, i.e., 9 guntas in Sy.No.6/8 of Lalithaadripura Village, Varuna Hobli, Mysore Taluk, is "Sarkari Beelu". Therefore, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the matter, the writ petition was dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to approach the competent revenue authority seeking necessary correction in the RTC and await records and thereafter, work out remedies in accordance with law. This Court finds that in this writ petition, the petitioners are questioning the order passed by the Special - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:6362 WP No. 3104 of 2026 Assistant Commissioner, Mysore Sub-Division, in proceedings bearing No.R.A.58/2022 dated 26.07.2024, which is at an earlier point of time and not after the orders were passed by this Court. Therefore, the remedy available for the petitioners is to approach the Tahsildar or the Assistant Commissioner to remove the forfeiture "Sarkari Beelu" in the RTC. 3. Having regard to the liberty granted by this Court in its order dated 20.11.2025, no useful purpose would be served in raising a challenge to the order passed by the Special Assistant Commissioner on 26.07.2024. Consequently, the writ petition stands disposed of, once again reserving liberty to the petitioners to pursue their remedy in terms of the liberty granted by this Court in W.P.No.2199/2025. Ordered accordingly. Learned High Court Government Pleader is permitted to file memo of appearance within a period of four weeks from today. Sd/- (R DEVDAS) JUDGE rv, Sl No.: 16
