THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.4904 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner challenges the action of the District Collector, West-Godavari, the 1st respondent, in issuing No Objection Certificate, for construction of a petroleum outlet at Jangareddy Gudem, in favour of the 2nd respondent. He made a representation dated 24-02-2009, through his Advocate, to the 1st respondent. It was pointed out that the petitioner intended to purchase a plot of land by the side of the A.P.S.R.T.C. Bus Depot, at Jangareddy Gudem, and he came to know from the discussion among the persons in the locality, that a petroleum outlet was going to be established by the 2nd respondent in a site, contrary to the settled norms. The petitioner submits that his representation was not taken into account, and the petroleum outlet is going to be established contrary to the norms. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Government Pleader for the respondents. The petitioner does not hold any property in and around the site, over which, the outlet is going to be established. It is only stated that he intended to purchase a property in the vicinity. Further, except making certain vague and unverified statements, the petitioner did not point out, either in his representation, or in the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition, as to how the No Objection Certificate, issued in favour of the 2nd respondent, is invalid, or unlawful. The writ petition is devoid of merits, and it is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ Dt.30-03-2009. L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. KO
