2020, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: RP. No. 317 OF 2020 IN WP(C). 30040/2019 ORDER Dated this the 17th day of December 2020 th The review petition is filed by the 4 respondent. Though notice th was served on the 4 respondent, there was no appearance for her. 2. The learned counsel for the review petitioner submits that though he has filed vakalth, it was not shown. 3. This Court disposed of the case by directing the Revenue Authority to issue ROR to the petitioner based on possession and boundaries of the property in the light of the Tahsildar's report. In the title deed of the petitioner, extent was shown as three cents. But the actual extent of the property is five cents. The Court is of the view that when there is a dispute regarding the extent in boundary, the boundary will prevail and ROR has to be issued accordingly. 4.

The review petitioner submits that the petitioner is not entitled for the entire extent of land and the petitioner cannot claim the same without any title deed. The review petitioner, in fact, instituted a suit as O. S. No. 258/2019 on the file of Munsiff's Court, Parappanangadi seeking a declaration of her title over the two cents. That suit is pending. RP. No. 317 OF 2020 IN WP(C). 30040/2019 5. This Court is of the view that the review petitioner's right can be protected without reviewing the judgment. ROR was directed to be issued only on the strength of Tahsildar's report. It cannot be construed as acknowledgment of right, possession, interest over such land. It is for the civil court to decide the dispute. The review petitioner is also free to seek any interim relief before the civil court. The judgment passed by this Court referring to the Tahsildar's report is only for the purpose of issuing ROR and not by acknowledging title, interest of the writ petitioner over the land.

Accordingly, the review petition is disposed of clarifying the judgment as above. Sd/- A. MUHAMED MUSTAQUE SAS/17/12/2020 JUDGE RP.
