The petitioners purchased an extent of 14.997 Ares of property in Resurvey No.107/1-1-2 in Block No.23 of Marampally Village on 19.7.2012, as per sale deed registered as document No.4163/2012 in Perumbavoor SRO. The predecessors-in-interest of the petitioners had purchased the said property in 1977, when the property was situated in the then Vazhakkulam Village. Pursuant to a bifurcation of Vazhakkulam Village as Vazhakkulam and Marampally Villages, a re-survey was conducted, and fresh survey numbers allotted. At the time of re-survey, however, the description of the property was shown as 'Nilam' in the Village and Re-survey records. The same description was mentioned in the draft data bank prepared for the area as well. Although the predecessor-in-interest of the petitioners preferred an application seeking correction of the entry in the revenue records as well as the draft data bank, no effective steps were taken by the respondents towards that end.

2. On the petitioners purchasing the property, they preferred an application [Ext.P10] before the 2nd respondent, for correcting the description of the property in the revenue records.

The 2nd respondent, by Ext.P11 order date
