HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.28483 of 2010 Date: 19th November 2010 Between : Bhumana Karunakar Reddy. …….Petitioner And The State of Andhra Pradesh, rep. by its Chief Secretary & another. ….Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.28483 of 2010 ORDER : This writ petition is filed, seeking a writ of Mandamus, declaring the inaction on the part of 1st respondent, on the representation, dated 28.09.2010, made by the petitioner, as illegal, improper and unjust, with a direction to the 1st respondent to take action on the petitioner’s representation. I have perused the copy of the representation, dated 28th September 2010, which is placed on record. A perusal of the said representation indicates that on the ground that some third parties have made allegations against him when he was functioning as Chairman of the Trust Board, the petitioner has made a request to the Government to order for inquiry by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), or by a sitting Judge of this Court or Supreme Court. Except a vague statement in the representation, no specific allegations are referred to by the petitioner. Merely because a representation is made, that by itself, is no ground to direct the respondents to order for inquiry. If any allegations are made, it is for the Government to take action, and to take steps for conducting appropriate inquiry, if required, but merely basing on his representation, the petitioner cannot seek directions by way of Mandamus under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, to order for inquiry. For the aforesaid reasons, the writ petition is devoid of merit and it is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ____________________ 19th November 2010 R.SUBHASH REDDY, J ajr
