The present Writ Petition has been filed in the nature of a Writ of Mandamus seeking for a direction to the 2nd and 3rd respondents to survey and fix the boundaries in respect of property comprised in Survey No. 231/2B, bearing Patta No. 365, situated at K.Kallikudi North Village, Srirangam Taluk, Trichy District.

3. It is the case of the petitioner that he is the owner of the subject property and in order to survey and fix boundaries for the subject property, he has made an online application to the respondent authority on 22.08.2026.
