ORDER : B. Manohar, J. 1. The petitioners in this writ petition have sought for quashing the order dated 10-9-2015 passed by the Assistant Commissioner allowing the application filed for Police protection. The main grievance of the petitioners in the writ petition is that the order passed by the Assistant Commissioner is contrary to law, no opportunity was given to the petitioners to substantiate their possession and the order is not a speaking order. Learned Counsel for respondents 1 and 2 contended that on the appeal filed by the respondents 1 and 2 under Section 136(2) of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964, the Assistant Commissioner initially stayed the order. Inspite of that, the respondent in the appeal before the Assistant Commissioner is trying to interfere with the possession. In view of the same, application is filed for Police protection for enforcement of the order of the Assistant Commissioner. Hence, sought for dismissal of the writ petition. 2. Learned Additional Government Advocate appearing for respondent 3 argued in support of the order passed by the respondent 3. 3. I have carefully considered the arguments addressed by the Advocates for the parties and perused the order impugned and other relevant record. Respondents 1 and 2 herein filed an appeal under Section 136(2) of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act challenging the order of the Deputy Tahsildar mutating the name. In the said appeal the respondents 1 and 2 filed interim application invoking Section 55 read with Section 25 of the Karnataka Land Reforms Act, 1961 seeking Police Protection. The Assistant Commissioner without giving any opportunity to the petitioner herein on the same day passed the order. The order passed by the Assistant Commissioner is not a speaking order and no opportunity is given. Hence, I feel that the order passed by the Assistant Commissioner cannot be sustained. The Assistant Commissioner has to reconsider the matter and pass orders afresh in accordance with law. Accordingly, the following order is passed: ORDER Writ petition is allowed. Order dated 10-9-2015 (vide Annexure-G) is hereby quashed. Matter is remanded to the Assistant Commissioner for considering the matter afresh after giving opportunity to the petitioner and pass orders in accordance with law. Parties to bear their respective costs. In view of disposal of the writ petition, I.A. No. 1 of 2016 filed for clarification of the interim order does not survive and is accordingly disposed.
