HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No. 14310 of 2011 ORDER: The relief sought for in this writ petition is to declare the inaction of the 1st respondent in not deciding the application filed by the petitioner to implead themselves in the appeal preferred by the 3rd respondent as arbitrary and illegal. Sri Ch. Ramanand, learned counsel for the petitioner would draw the attention of this Court to the proceedings of the Tahsildar, Nellikudur Mandal dated 11.5.2010 wherein a reference is made to the joint inspection report which records that the third respondent had disturbed/destroyed the bund of Regula Kunta/Redappa Kunta, nearly 100meters in length and had encroached about 50 feet depth where the bund earlier existed and that the very location and shape of the bund, which is the water source for the village, had been changed. Against the said order of the Tahsildar, the 3rd respondent preferred an appeal. Petitioner apprehends that all the facts necessary for an effective adjudication of the appeal may not be brought to the notice of the 1st respondent by the 3rd respondent and it is therefore necessary that the petitioner’s application to implead themselves in the appeal preferred by the 3rd respondent be ordered and they be heard before any orders are passed in the appeal. Since the petitioner has filed an application seeking to implead himself in the appeal preferred by the 3rd respondent to the 1st respondent, ends of justice would be met if the 1st respondent is directed to dispose of the said impleadment application in accordance with law, after giving the 3rd respondent an opportunity of being heard. The stay application filed by the petitioner shall be disposed of at the earliest and in any event, not later than three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petition stands disposed of accordingly. However, in the circumstances, without costs. ____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J Date:18.5.2011 Note: Furnish c.c. in three days.
