Hon'ble Rajeev Misra,J.
1. Heard Mr. Ramagya Shukla, learned counsel for petitioner and learned Standing counsel representing respondents 1 and 2.
2. Perused the record.
3. This Writ Petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India has been filed for a writ of mandamus commanding respondent-2, Tehsildar Tehsil-Meja, District-Allahabad to decide Suit No. T201902030800391 of 2019 (Smt. Savita Tiwari Vs. Omkar Nath) under Sections 34/35 of U.P. Revenue Code 2006, within a time bound period, fixed by this Court.
4. Learned counsel for petitioners contends that afore- mentioned Suit was filed by petitioner in the year 2019. However, in spite of the fact that a period of more than two years has rolled by from the date of filing of above mentioned case, same has not been decided till date.
5. Learned counsel for petitioners next invited attention of Court to Rule 34 (7) of U.P. Revenue Code Rules, 2016 and on basis thereof, he contends that respondent-2, Tehsildar- (Judicial) Tehsil-Shahganj, District-Jaunpur was under a legal obligation to decide above noted proceeding within the time period prescribed under the Rules. He further submits that delay in disposal of above mentioned case cannot be attributable to petitioner. On the aforesaid premise, it is thus urged that interest of justice shall better be served in case a direction is issued to respondent-2 to decide above mentioned suit within the time period fixed by this Court. Consequently, mandamus as prayed for by petitioner is liable to be issued.
6. Having heard learned counsel for petitioner, learned Standing Counsel representing respondents-1 and 2 and upon perusal of material brought on record, this court finds that no useful purpose shall be served in keeping this writ petition pending.
7. In view of above, this writ petition is finally disposed of with a direction to respondent-2, Tehsildar Tehsil-Meja, District- Allahabad to decide Suit No. T201902030800391 of 2019 (Smt. Savita Tiwari Vs. Omkar Nath) under Sections 34/35 of U.P. Revenue Code 2006, with all expedition, without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties preferably within a period of three months from the date of production of a certified copy/computer generated copy of this order, which shall be filed by petitioner in above mentioned mutation case by means of a Notary Affidavit.
