    The High Court of Madras dismissed the writ petition filed by O. Mari seeking removal of alleged encroachment on a 10-foot-wide mud pathway in Alathurai Village, Tiruvannamalai District. The court found no material evidence of a public pathway as described in the petition; revenue records and Field Measurement Books indicated the survey numbers in question were private patta lands of individuals, not public pathways. The court held that a mandamus cannot be issued for a non-existent road and dismissed the petition without costs. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
