Hon'ble Dinesh Pathak,J.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the State.
Present writ petition has been filed beseeching expeditious disposal of Case No. 02781 of 2018 (Smt. Asharfi Devi vs. Shobh Nath), under Section 35 of the U.P. Land Revenue Act, pending in the court of Tehsildar (Respondent No. 1).
It is submitted by the counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner has moved a mutation application under Section 35 of the U.P. Land Revenue Act, which is pending since June, 2018 despite the fact that statutory period, as enunciated under Rule 34(7) of U.P. Revenue Code Rules, 2016, has already elapsed.
Learned Standing Counsel has no objection in case the aforesaid case is directed to be decided within a stipulated period fixed by this Court.
In this conspectus as above, no useful purpose would be served to keep this matter pending, therefore, this court deems it appropriate to finally dispose of the present writ petition, without making any observation on the merits of the case as mentioned in the present writ petition, with a direction to the Tehsildar (respondent No. 1), before whom the case is pending, to decide the same expeditiously, preferably, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order.
It is expected that it should be decided by reasoned and speaking order, in accordance with law, after affording opportunity of hearing to the parties concerned without granting unnecessary adjournments.
With the aforesaid direction, present writ petition is disposed of.
