THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE P.S. NARAYANA WRIT PETITION No.14739 of 2006 Date: 01.09.2006 Between: Sri Ananeya All Castes Boatmen Labour Contract Cooperative Society Ltd. Rep., by its President B.N.Prasada Rao. … PETITIONER AND The District Collector, Krishna District, Machilipatnam & others. … RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE P.S. NARAYANA WRIT PETITION No.14739 of 2006 ORDER:- Heard both the counsel. 2. The writ petition is filed seeking a Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in not extending the sand quarrying lease of the petitioner in Guntupally Reach of Ibrahimpatnam Mandal of Krishna District as illegal, arbitrary, contrary to the Minor Mineral Concessions Rules, 1966 and unconstitutional and consequently direct the respondents to forthwith extend the lease of the petitioner by 106 days and pass such suitable orders. 3. The learned Assistant Government Pleader for Panchayatraj submits that, in fact, the representation of the petitioner was considered and the grievance of the petitioner now appears to be that lesser number of days has been given and hence after duly considering all the facts and circumstances, the concession relating to certain days had already been given and there is no need to dispose of yet another representation. Learned counsel further submits that inasmuch as the request was prayed for specified number of days and only for a certain period, the relief was granted. 4. The representation of the petitioner may be sympathetically considered by the 4th respondent again. Whatever the reasons may be, inasmuch as, it is only consideration of representation, the 4th respondent is directed to dispose of the representation of the petitioner dated 26.06.2006, within a reasonable time by taking into consideration the orders already made in this regard. 5. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. No order as to costs. ___________________ P.S. NARAYANA, J Date: 01.09.2006 ES
