¶2Considering that no adverse order is likely to be passed against the respondents 5 to 11, notice to them is dispensed with.

3.This writ petition is disposed of at the admission stage itself. It is open to any aggrieved party to move this Court either by way of review or recall of this order, if there is any suppression of material facts by the petitioner.

¶4The Writ Petition is disposed of with the following directions:-

(I) The petitioner is directed to submit his application in on-line mode. The survey authority will scrutinize if the application submitted by the petitioner is in order.

(II) The petitioner will have to enclose all the relevant documents such as patta.

(III) The survey authority will issue notice to the writ petitioner, as well as the adjacent land owners and also to the interested persons, if any, including the private respondents.

(IV) Enquiry shall be held. During enquiry, objections raised by the adjacent land owners / interested persons shall be considered.

(V) If according to the jurisdictional authority, the objections are without any basis, the same shall be overruled and the objectors shall be informed accordingly. But the survey will be conducted only after a period of six weeks so that the objectors can move the concerned Court for injunction. If before the proposed date of survey, the objectors are unable to obtain any injunction order, the survey can very well go on.

(VI) It is open to the parties to serve memo of instructions to the surveyor at the time of conducting survey. The same will be borne in mind. While it cannot be binding on the surveyor, the same will be taken note of.

(VII) If the jurisdictional authority finds objections to be having substance, then, he shall call upon the applicants to move the jurisdictional civil Court for agitating their rights.

(VIII) If required, the respondent police is directed to afford necessary police protection on payment of necessary charges in terms of GO.Ms.No.139, Home (Pol-VIII) Department, dated 04.03.2019.
