ORDER This writ petition has been filed seeking a direction to the respondents to correct the revenue records pertaining to the property more fully described in the prayer to this writ petition by restoring the petitioner's name as pattadar as per the Allotment No.215 dated 16.02.1963.

¶2The petitioner claims that she is the owner of the property more fully described in the prayer to the writ petition. However, according to the petitioner, her name has been erroneously omitted from the revenue records relating to the subject property.

In this regard, the petitioner had given representations to the respondents seeking inclusion of her name as Pattadar in respect of the said property.
