THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4875 of 2010 03.3.2010 Between Ballekari Ravichander, S/o.Swamy … Petitioner AND The District Collector, Warangal District And others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4875 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is resident of Haripirala village of Torrur Mandal in Warangal District. Statedly he is pattadar of agricultural lands in survey Nos.641 (Acs.0.28 gts.,), 642 (Acs.0.10 gts.,), 643 (Acs.2.24 gts.,), 644 (Acs.1.31 gts.,), 645 (Acs.2.01 gts.,), 646 (Acs.5.09 gts.,) and 647 (Acs.1.04 gts.,) situated in the said village. He dug a well for irrigating the lands and obtained electricity service connection from A.P.Transco. At present, statedly he raised paddy crop in survey No.646 admeasuring Acs.5.09 gts. It is alleged that on 25.2.2010, third respondent went to the lands of petitioner and seized service connection, removed electric fuses and handed over the same to fourth respondent. On enquiry, petitioner came to know that the Water Users Association of Haripirala Village (WUA) lodged a complaint stating that water from Pedda Cheruvu existing in survey No.651 is being used for doing cultivation and water in Pedda Cheruvu is meant for public purpose. Petitioner’s explanation that well and motor are situated in survey No.646 fell on deaf ears. Therefore, he filed instant writ petition. This Court heard learned Counsel for petitioner. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (Telangana Area), at the stage of admission itself, obtained instructions from the third respondent. The letter addressed by the third respondent to the Government Pleader is also placed before this Court. A perusal of the same would reveal the following. Vallapu Narayana, S/o.Buchaiah, and Challaboina Komurelly, S/o.Sailu, are illegally cultivating tank bed land bearing survey No.651 of Haripirala village by drawing water through an unauthorized power connection with electric motor for feeding tank bed land. The President of WUA made a complaint and requested to stop illegal activity. As the cultivation of tank bed land is prohibited under the revenue laws, the Mandal Revenue Inspector, Thorrur Mandal, and Village Revenue Officer along with Mandal Surveyor inspected the spot and enquired the matter. The well was situated in survey No.651, which is classified as tank bed land and they conducted a panchanama and put a seal over the well with an intention to stop illegal drawing water from Pedda Cheruvu. It was found that Ballakari Swamy dug open well in the tank in collusion with Vallapu Narayana and Challaboina Komurelly and erected motor connection illegally. It is stated that Revenue officials only stopped drawing water from survey No.651 and stopped the use of electric motor. They did not take any adverse action in respect of land in survey No.646, as it is a patta land. As a clear assertion is made before this Court that third respondent did not take any adverse action in respect of the land in survey No.646, the writ petition is without any cause of action. It is filed on mere apprehension. However, this Court observes that if there is any contravention on the part of the petitioner, it shall be open to Revenue authorities to take action, after giving notice to petitioner. The writ petition, with the above observation, is accordingly dismissed. _____________ March 03, 2010. (V.V.S.RAO,J) YS
