In these writ petitions, the validity of an order dated 06.08.1994, passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer (RDO) and confirmed by the Joint Collector, granting Occupancy Rights Certificate (ORC) to respondent No.3 in respect of certain lands in Budvel village, Rajendranagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, is questioned.
