ORDER
Order No. 09.07.2026
02.
1. This matter is taken up through hybrid mode.
2. Petitioner in this writ petition prays for a direction to the Tahasildar, Danagadi to consider her representation dated 23.06.2025 (Annexure-2) for settlement of a piece of government land, on which she is residing.
3. On perusal of Annexure-2, it appears that the representation was made under Section 8-A of the Odisha Government Land Settlement Act, 1962. As such, the representation itself is misconceived.
4. Hence, Mr. Khandai, learned Counsel on behalf of Mr. Ramesh Chandra Ojha, learned Counsel for the
Petitioner prays for withdrawal of the writ petition to avail the remedy before the statutory Authority.
5. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of as withdrawn.
