THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA WRIT PETITION No.12494 of 2010 DATED: 03.06.2010 Between: B. Parandamaiah Naidu .. Petitioner And The Tahsildar, Irala Mandal, Chittoor District and others. .. Respondents ORDER: The petitioner claims to be the owner of the land admeasuring 0.10 cents in Sy.No.1558/5 situated at Polakala Village, Irala Mandal, Chittoor District. It is his grievance that, at a distance of about 25 meters from the bore-well situated in his land, the 3rd respondent has dug a bore-well in the adjacent land in Sy.No.38/4, without obtaining necessary permission from the competent authority and in contravention of the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Water, Land and Trees Act, 2002, as a result of which there is depletion of water level in his well and, in spite of his representation dated 22.05.2010, no action is being taken by respondents 1 and 2 in the matter. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the official respondents. The petitioner has submitted his representation to the respondent authorities only on 22.05.2010 and, therefore, it is too premature to state that the respondent authorities have not acted upon the same. However, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case, respondents 1 and 2 are directed to consider and dispose of the representation dated 22.05.2010 submitted by the petitioner, in accordance with law, after issuing notice to the 3rd respondent and taking into consideration the explanation that may be submitted by him, as expeditiously as possible. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. __________________ JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA 3rd June, 2010 IBL
