consideration of Rs.40 Lakhs. It is further the case of the
petitioner that after execution of the sale deed, the name of the
petitioner was duly mutated and recorded in the relevant revenue
records including B-1, P-II, Khasra Panchshala and Rin
Pustika/Kisan Kitab. Thereafter, the petitioner submitted an
application dated 11.12.2025 before the competent authority
under Section 125 of the Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code
seeking demarcation of the boundaries of the aforesaid land. It
has also been stated that requisite fee for demarcation was duly

from the concerned Revenue Inspector and Patwari which was to
be submitted by 30.12.2025. A memorandum in this regard was
also issued on 12.12.2025. According to the petitioner, thereafter

knowledge that after 12.12.2025 no progress had been recorded

demarcation proceedings. Being aggrieved by such inaction on

application for demarcation on 11.12.2025 and despite issuance
of memorandum by the Tahsildar calling for report from the
Revenue Inspector and Patwari, no effective steps have been
taken by the respondent authorities for concluding the
demarcation proceedings. It is contended that due to prolonged
