UKHC010113452026 2026:UHC:5967 SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS WPMS/2003/2026 Amar Singh --Petitioner Versus District Magistrate & Others --Respondents Hon’ble Manoj Kumar Tiwari, J. None for the petitioner. Mr. Ghanshyam Joshi, Additional CSC, for the State. (2) According to petitioner, he has made an application for demarcation to the District Magistrate on 19.6.2026, but no decision has been taken thereupon. By means of this writ petition, petitioner has sought the following relief: “I. Issue a writ order or direction in the nature of Mandamus commanding and directing the respondents to complete the process of Demarcation in respect of land of khata number 00023 khasra no. 131 (Kha) (Me) Measuring .2153 Hectare in village SewlaKhurd Parana Pachwadun Tehsil and district Dehradun, within stipulated time period as may deem fit and proper by this Hon’ble Court. (Annexure no. 3. Page no. (28 to 30)” (3) Learned State Counsel, however, submits that application under Section 41 of Land Revenue Act lies before Assistant Collector, while petitioner has made application to an authority who is not competent to pass the order on the said application. He further points out that application was made less than a month ago, therefore writ petition is premature. UKHC010113452026 2026:UHC:5967 (4) Having regard to the facts of the case, writ petition is disposed of by permitting the petitioner to make application before the competent authority. Application, if made, shall be considered, as per law, as early as possible.
