¶2Ms.R.K.Varshini, learned Government Advocate, takes notice on behalf of the respondents.

¶3By consent of the parties, the main petition is taken up for disposal in the stage of admission itself.

However, the said application was not at all considered by the respondents till date. Hence, this petition.

¶5In reply, the learned counsel for the respondent would submit that the petitioner's application will be disposed of within a period of 6 weeks and hence, he requests this Court to pass appropriate orders.

If there is any dispute with regard to the title/possession over the said property, the same has to be decided only by way of filing a suit before an appropriate Civil Court.

¶9If any police protection is required at the time of conducting survey, the revenue officials are granted liberty to avail the same by approaching the jurisdictional police station. In such case, the concerned police officer shall provide all necessary protection to the revenue officials till the completion of survey at the subject land.
