3. It is sta.ted that the petitioners are tJle pattaclars and possessors ol agricultural land to an extent of ,\cs.5.00 guntas in Sv.No.26/Aa situated at Thattikhana Village, Abdullapurmet Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, having purchased the same under registered sale det:d uid.e document bearing Nos.lO61, 1062, 1063, 1O64 of 1995, dated 30.08. 199S. It is also stated that responderrt No.3, uide proceedings No.E/lg85/1998, dated 10.02.19()g, has issued pattadar passbooks ald title deeds uid.e,t patta Nos.75 and 76 to an extent of Acs.2.2O guntas each, in favour of the petitioners. The case of the petitioners is that despite the same, the land in their possession has been classified as [avoni patta in the revenue records, which constrained them to submit an application seeki ng for deletion of the said land, but the respondents ha,re not considered the sarne. It is further stated tha.t the petitioners have instituted a suit for injunction uide O.S.No. 1295 of 2003, restraining the respondents ]rerein from interfering with the peaceful possession of the subject property a,d lor seeking rectification of revenue entries and for consequential amendment of revenue re cords -t) classifying the nature of the lald as Patta lands, instead of lavoni patta lands and also submitted representations dated 09.12.2024 and 30.12.2024 seeking for modification and rectification of the revenue entries in respect of the subject property. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondents a-re not considering the said representations for modi[,-ing/amending the entries in the revenue rccords and for consequential issuance of the pattadar passbooks.

4. Admittedly, it is stated that the petitioaers have purchased the subject land through registered sale deed uide docttment Nos. 1061, 1062, 1063, 1064 of 1995, dated

30.08.1995 and their names were entered in tlle revenue records ald pattadar passbooks have also been issued in their favoui. It is also stated that initially the nature of lands has been depicted in the revenue records as patta lands, but recently in the year 2024, the nature of the land has been wrongly classified as lavoni patta lands and as such the petitioner frled representations seeking for correction of the said entries. Thus it appears that there are disputes with regard to the nature of the L,urd, its classificalion and rectification of entries in the r:evenue records ald for consecuential issualce of the pattadar passbooks.

5. It is a settled larv that the writ petition ls not a remedy for directing the respondent_authorities to rectify the entries in. the revenue records or to reclassifv the entries in tl-re revenutj records and for conseq uential amendment o1' the records and for issuance of pzrttadar passbooks. If the petitioners are aggrieved by the action of reclassifying the patta lands, they are at liberty to in stitute appropriate suit before the competent Civil Court and obtain necessary declaration that the subject lan<ls are patta lalds. Thereafter, the petitioners a-re entitted to make appropriate application seeking for amendm,:nt of the revenue records and for consequential issuar.rce of pattadar passbooks in accordarrce with law.

6. With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. As a sequel, the miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall sta;rd closed. //TRUE COPY// SD/.A.V.S.PRASAD UTY REGISTRAR ECTION OFFICER To,
