STATE OF KARNATAKA Respondents

JUDGEMENT

R.DEVDAS,J. - (1.)Learned Additional Government Advocate takes notice for all the respondents.
(2.)The prayer in the writ petition is to issue a writ of mandamus or direction to respondent-revenue authorities to consider the application filed by the petitioner on 2/11/2019 at Annexure-B for grant of land in terms of the provisions contained in the Karnataka Land Grant Rules, 1969.
(3.)Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is seeking grant of land in Katlatkur village, Raichur Taluk and District. According to the petitioner, the extent of land available for grant in Raichur District has been noticed in the case of Paul Mitra Y. vs. Deputy Commissioner, Raichur, District Raichur, and others in W.P.No.200151/2017 disposed of on 19/8/2017. A contempt petition was also filed by Sri Paul Mitra in CCC No.200006/2018 where the Deputy Commissioner has placed material before this Court showing the extent of land that is available for grant in the district, the extent of land reserved under the Ex-serviceman quota and the quota for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. It is the contention of the petitioner that she belongs to a Scheduled Caste community and therefore, she is entitled for grant in accordance with law. However, though the application was filed on 2/11/2019, no orders have been passed till date.
