IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) WEDNESDAY, THE TWENTY NINTH DAY OF MARCH TWO THOUSAND AND SIX PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE J.CHELAMESWAR WRIT PETITION No.9359 OF 1995 Between: M.V.V.Satyanarayana And others. ..... PETITIONERS AND The Government of A.P. represented By its Principal Secretary, Environment, Science and Technology Department, Secretariat Buildings, Hyderabad. ....RESPONDENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE J.CHELAMESWAR WRIT PETITION No.9359 OF 1995 O R D E R This Writ Petition is filed with a prayer as follows: “… Hon’ble Court may be pleased to issue an appropriate writ, order or direction more especially one in the nature of Writ of Mandamus declaring the action of the respondent in abolition of the Kolleru Lake Development Committee (K.L.D.C.), at Kaikalur as wholly illegal and arbitrary and consequently direct them to continue the Committee at Kaikalur and pass such other order or orders as are deemed fit and proper in the circumstances of the case.” None appears when the matter is taken up today. Apart from that, the substance of the writ petition is about abolition of the Kolleru Lake Development Committee, which is illegal. The petitioners claim that they are very much interested in preservation of ecology of Kolleru Lake. Notwithstanding the pendency of the matter for more than a decade in this Court, no counter is filed by the respondents. The issue is being considered by the Supreme Court and various orders have been passed by the Supreme Court in the recent past in this regard. In the circumstances, I do not see any reason to proceed further in the writ petition and the same is therefore dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ----------------------------------- JUSTICE J.CHELAMESWAR 29th MARCH, 2006 PGS THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE J.CHELAMESWAR WRIT PETITION No.9359 OF 1995 29th MARCH, 2006
