Case No.20/2005/KGM, an appeal has been preferred in C.M.A.No.88 of 2005 together with an application for stay before the 1st respondent, which is still pending. The only grievance of the petitioner is that pending the said Appeal, the 1st respondent – The Additional Agent to Government & Project Officer, ITDA, Bhadrachalam, failed to consider his request for suspension of operation of the order dated 19-4-2005. Hence, this writ petition. Having heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner, learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare appearing for the respondents and having perused the material on record, I am of the opinion that it would be appropriate to protect the possession of the petitioner till the disposal of the appeal. Accordingly, there shall be a direction to the 1st respondent to dispose of the Appeal pending on its file, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Till such time, status quo obtaining as on today as to the nature and possession of the land in question shall be maintained. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ______________ G.
