CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE R DEVDAS ORAL ORDER
Learned Additional Government Advocate takes notice for all the respondents.
2. Learned Additional Government Advocate raises a preliminary objection that the petitioner is seeking directions to the Tahsildar, Bengaluru North Taluk, to consider the representation given by the petitioner at Annexure-F series,

HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:328 WP No. 27193 of 2025 despite an order being passed by the Tahsildar at Annexure-E dated 04.04.2024, rejecting the claim of the petitioner.
3. There is substance in the contention of the learned Additional Government Advocate, it is seen from the documents produced by the writ petitioner that earlier, the petitioner's sons had filed writ petition No.23079/2021 seeking directions to the Tahsildar to rectify the alleged mistakes in the RTC. This Court disposed of the writ petition by order dated 31.05.2022, directing the Tahsildar to consider the grievance of the petitioner therein and also take into consideration all the documents of the petitioner in support of their claim and pass necessary orders. Accordingly, the Tahsildar passed an order in proceedings bearing No.RRT(H)CR:962/2023-24 dated 04.04.2024 rejecting the claim of the petitioners.
4. That being the position, the petitioner cannot be permitted to give further representations to the Tahsildar. If the petitioner is aggrieved of the order passed by the Tahsildar, the avenue open for the petitioner is to approach the Assistant Commissioner raising a challenge to the order passed by the

HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:328 WP No. 27193 of 2025 Tahsildar. It is also seen that the private respondents who are parties in the order passed by the Tahsildar are not made parties in these proceedings.
5. In that view of the matter, the writ petition stands
disposed of, reserving liberty to the petitioner to raise a challenge to the order passed by the Tahsildar before the Assistant Commissioner in accordance with law.
Ordered accordingly.
Learned Additional Government Advocate is permitted to file memo of appearance within a period of two weeks from today. Sd/- (R DEVDAS) JUDGE rv List No.: 1 Sl No.: 19
