RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI NISAR AHMAD KAKRU AND THE HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE VILAS V.AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO. 8156 OF 2011 O R D E R : (PER THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI NISAR AHMAD KAKRU) 1. Petitioner staking claim through W.P.No.8269 of 2006 on the land admeasuring 16557 square yards in Plot Nos.108, 109, 110, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120 and 121 forming part of House Nos.8-2-686/2,3,4 & 5 on the ground of being a purchaser of the same, sought a writ to command the respondents to accord consideration to his claim for regularization but was dismissed as withdrawn by an order dated 12.9.2008. However, while recording dismissal of the writ petition, the writ court left the respondents free to consider the application of the petitioner in accordance with the guidelines issued by the government. In the meanwhile, a claim for regularization came to be filed by yet another claimant in respect of the same property and the Collector considered both the claims, consideration whereof brought him to a conclusion to recommend regularization in favour of rival claimants, consequently G.O.Ms.No.249, dated 21.2.2009 which as stated by the learned counsel for the appellant stands questioned by the writ petitioner/appellant by medium of a writ petition. Simultaneously, he filed a complaint against the District Collector before the Lok Ayukta contending that the recommendation made was unfounded on facts, but indulgence was declined with an observation that the petitioner could assail the proceedings before the competent forum. It is the said order that is questioned before us but could not persuade us to display indulgence because the appellant has failed to satisfy the ingredients of Section 7(2) r/w 2(b) of The Andhra Pradesh Lokayukta and Upa- Lokayukta Act, 1983. Considering the matter in totality of the circumstances, we are of the considered opinion that this writ petition is aimed at an undue harassment of the District Collector for no fault of his. At this stage, learned counsel for the petitioner sought withdrawal of the writ petition. Dismissed as such. (VILAS V.AFZULPURKAR,J) (NISAR AHMAD KAKRU, CJ) 29th March, 2011.
