At the stage of admission itself, learned Assistant Government Pleader, on instructions, submits that Vissampalli Gram Panchayat sent proposals for fixing upset price in respect of Thummala Cheruvu and Lokashi Kunta, and that by proceedings dated 19.8.2006 the third respondent has already fixed upset price. Insofar as Muthyalamma Kunta is concerned, no such proposal was received by the third respondent. In view of the submission made by the learned Assistant Government Pleader, the petitioner’s grievance has been substantially redressed. Learned Counsel for respondents 6 and 7 submits that Thummala Cheruvu and Lokashi Kunta were already leased out to the respondents 6 and 7. The same is disputed by the learned Counsel for the petitioner. Insofar as Muthyalamma Kunta is concerned, the said tank is not leased out to anybody. The petitioner society may approach the first respondent with a copy of this order in this regard. Now that the upset price is fixed for two tanks, it is for the first respondent to take necessary action in accordance with Section 80(2) of A.P. Panchayat Raj Act, 1994 and the guidelines issued by the Government in G.O.Ms.No.343, dated 10.4.1978, G.O.Ms.No.499, dated 25.11.1998 and G.O.Ms.No.546, dated 25.3.1999. The writ petition, with the above observations, is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _____________ (V.V.S.RAO,J) January 18, 2007. NOTE Dispatch order copy by 19.1.2007. (By order) YS
