The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is aggrieved by the issuance of the notice dated 22.06.2026 by the respondent Corporation calling upon the petitioner to attend the proposed survey, which is to be conducted on 09.07.2026.
2. It is submitted that the petitioner and the 3rd espondent are contesting civil suits filed by either party and that the suits are filed for injunction. It is submitted that the survey was once conducted by the Mandal Surveyor and a report to that effect was also issued by the Surveyor on 30.07.2025. It is submitted that the proposed survey is only to harass the petitioner and that the petitioner and the 3rd respondent are contesting civil suits and that it would be appropriate for the trial Court to direct the conduct of the survey by appointing an Advocate Commissioner.
