2. The brief facts of the case are that the petitioner by name Geeta Paarishramika Sahakara Sangam represented by its President, claims to be the owner of the said lands which were purchased vide document No. 16141 of \984 dated 19.09.1984 from its origina-l owners. Thereafter, the name of the societSz was mutated in the revenue records. The petitioner submits that the said lands were purchased for the bene{it of the all the members of the society who are toddy tappers and eaking out their lives. It appears that some parties at t_ire instance of respondent Nos.4 to t have instituted a suit in O.S.No. 16 of 2O2O on 2 the file of learned Prl. Junior Civil Judge at Huzurabad, Hanumakonda District seeking perpetual injunction in respect of land admeasuring Ac.5.39 guntas in Sy.Nos.697 and 698 i.e., subject property.

3. Learned counsel for the petitioner subrnits that the petitioner society is part5z to the suit liled for perpetual injunction, however, no orders have been passed. Learned counsel has referred to the prohibited list which has been notilied by virtue of order passed in LA.No.45 of 2O2O in O.S.No. 16 of 2O2O dated 22.O2.2O2O on the h1e of learned Junior Civil Judge at Huzurabad, wherein the subject property to an extent ol Ac.4.23 (A) in Sy.No.698 and Ac.1.16 (A) in Sy.No.697 has been placed in the prohibited list. Learned counsel further submits that only I.A was liled and no orders restraining a.lienation of the subject property has been Il1ed. Learned counsel further submits that when there is no order restraining the subject property, the Sub- Registrar ought not to have placed the subject property in the prohibited list. A Division Bench of this Court in M/s. Invecta Technologies Private Limited and others V. Government of Andhra Pradesh held that if any person is aggrieved by the action of the respondents they may be permitted to make representation under Section 22 (4) and the relevant portion of the said decision is extracted hereunder, for better understanding of the case: "29. It was further held that sub-section (4) of Section 22A of tr,e Act provides a remedy to arl aggrieved party to J approach the State Government for deletion of his property from tJle notification. It has further been held that if aly such application is made, the competent authority has to a,fford an opportunity of hearing and an opportunity to produce materials/documents in support of such a claim. The claim made by an aggrieved person has to be dealt with by a speaking order. It has further been held that in case such an application is made under Section 224(4) of the Act, the same has to be decided within a period of three months. It has also been held that the mechanism provided under Section 22h(41 of tL,e Act sha,ll not preclude the parties to fi1e any other appropriate proceeding, including civil suit, for similar or appropriate relief."

4. At this juncture, learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that he would make appropriate representation brining all the facts and their grievance before the Sub-Registrar.

5. In view of the foregoing discussion, this Court without expressing any opinion on the merits of this case deems it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition granting liberty to the petitioner to approach the Sub-Registrar/ respondent authorities and make appropriate representation within a period ol one week from the date of receipt of copy of this order, thereafter, upon furnishing such representation by the petitioner the Sub-Registra-r/respondent authorities shall pass appropriate orders by putting the petitioner and all affected parties including the parties to the above suit on notice and after granting them an opportunity of hearing. It is made clear that the Sub- t I \ I 1 4 Registrar/respondent authorities sha11 peruse the orders of the learned trial Court in O.S.No. 16 of 2O2O on the irie of learned Junior Civil Judge at Huzurabad while deciding the representatior-i if any, frled by I the petitioner. 6 Accordingly, writ petition is disposed of.
