ORAL ORDER
In this writ petition, petitioner has sought for a direction to respondent Nos.3 to 5 to complete the process of measurement of land in question and to enter the name of petitioner in the revenue records.
2. In this regard, having taken note of the submission made by the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and the representation dated 15.06.2021 (Annexure-G), I am of the view that, the petitioner is required to approach the respondent-Authorities by filing an online application seeking to conduct survey in respect of the lands in question.
3. If such an application is made by the petitioner before the respondent-Authorities through online, the same shall be considered by the respondent-Authorities in accordance with law.
HC-KAR
4. Insofar as prayer
(b) is concerned, the petitioner has sought for deletion of the wrongful entry made in the mutation register.
5. In that view of the matter, if the petitioner is aggrieved by the entry made in the mutation register, it is open for her to approach the respondent-Authorities by invoking the remedy available under Section 136(2) of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964.
6. In that view of the matter, I am of the view that, no interference is called for in this writ petition insofar as to the prayer (b) is concerned.
Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of.
