THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.9332 of 2002 ORDER: This Writ Petition has been filed questioning the inaction of the Mandal Revenue Officer, Macherla Mandal, Guntur District (first respondent) in considering and disposing of the petitioner’s representation dated 31.12.2001 by conducting necessary enquiry, and in not holding that the petition schedule land, of an extent of Ac.2.00 in R.S.No.450 of Rayavaram Village, Macherla Mandal, Guntur District, is fit for mining activity. A consequential direction is sought to the second respondent to issue temporary permit, as deemed permission, to extract Napa Slab stones in the aforesaid land. This Court passed an interim order on 15.05.2002 directing the respondents to dispose of the petitioner’s representation dated 31.12.2002 within a period of four weeks. Both Sri C.C.S.Sastry, Learned Counsel for the petitioner, and the Learned Government Pleader for Revenue would express their ignorance as to what transpired subsequent thereto. Since the inaction of the respondents in considering the petitioner’s representation dated 31.12.2002 is under challenge in this Writ Petition, I consider it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition declaring that the interim order passed earlier on 15.05.2002 shall be the final order in the Writ Petition. In case, no order has been passed as yet on the petitioner’s representation dated 31.12.2002, as directed by this Court on 15.05.2002, the respondents shall pass an order, in accordance with law, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of. However, in the circumstances, without costs. RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J Date:03.02.2011 usd
