It is further stated that the petitioners have made applications seeking regularization of their lands as per the terms of G.O.Ms.No.58, dated 30.12.2024, and as the said applications have not been considered by the respondent authorities, they were constrained to institute a suit vide OS.No.277 of 2019 on the file of the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Nizamabad, and the said Court granted ad-interim-injunction in IA.No.573 of 2019, dated 24.01.2020.
