THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO.28918 OF 2011 DATED:11.11.2011 Between: S. Ananda Kumar Yadav … Petitioner And The Government of Andhra Pradesh Rep. by its Principal Secretary Industries & Commerce (MI) Department Secretariat Buildings, Saifabad Hyderabad and others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO.28918 OF 2011 ORDER: Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Government Pleader for Mines and Geology appearing for respondents 1 and 2, and learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for respondents 3 to 5. The petitioner has applied for grant of quarry lease under the application dated 16.9.2011 in terms of G.O.Ms.No.181 Industries & Commerce (Mines-I) Department, dated 28.05.1998. An expeditious disposal of such application is regulated by the procedure prescribed under the said G.O. The main grievance of the petitioner is that though the report from the fifth respondent is called for by the second respondent - Assistant Director of Mines and Geology, but the report is not sent in terms of the G.O. directly to the second respondent within the time prescribed. The learned counsel for the petitioner relied upon similar grievance redressed by order of this Court in Writ Petition No.22568 of 2011 dated 10.08.2011 and requests for a similar direction. On instructions, learned Government Pleader for Revenue submits that the fifth respondent – Tahsildar has already sent a report to the second respondent – Assistant Director of Mines and Geology. In view of the statement of the learned Government Pleader, based on instructions, which he has received, the grievance of the petitioner does not survive as the fifth respondent is stated to have sent his report to the second respondent. The Writ Petition is therefore, disposed of, directing the second respondent to take an appropriate decision based on the report sent by the fifth respondent, in terms of G.O.Ms.No. 181, dated 28.05.1998. No costs. _______________________ VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR , J 11.11.2011 bnr
