Vishwas Footwear Company Ltd vs The District Collector on 28 July, 2011
9. The learned Single Judge has categorically found that since the
appellants herein have not chosen to question the deletion of the name of the
first appellant's father in the patta for more than twenty years, they cannot
seek for restoration of patta in their names and the proper remedy for the
appellants is only to approach the civil Court, as rightly directed by the
Tahsildar. To arrive at such a conclusion, the learned Single Judge placed
reliance on the decision of the Division Bench of this Court in Viswas
Footwear Company Ltd., v. The District Collector, Kancheepuram reported in
2011 (5) CTC 94, to hold that if there is a dispute with regard to the title
while applying for patta, the parties should be relegated to the competent
civil Court for adjudication of their title dispute.
