THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.11166 of 2006 16.4.2007 Between: Karra Venkateswar Rao, S/o.Subba Rao … Petitioner AND The District Collector, Panchayat Wing, Krishna District And others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.11166 of 2006 ORDER: Petitioner is the Sarpanch of Nelakurru village Gram Panchayat. On an allegation that the petitioner resorted to irregularities in the Gram Panchayat works under Sadak Grameena Rozgar Yojana (SGRY) scheme and 11th finance commission funds, a show cause notice was issued on 14.12.2005 under Section 249(6) of Andhra Pradesh Panchayat Raj Act, 1994 (the Act, for brevity), which was followed by the impugned proceedings dated 28.4.2006 placing the petitioner under suspension for a period of three months. The same is challenged in the writ petition as illegal and arbitrary. As per subsection (6) of Section 249 of the Act, suspension order can be valid for a period of three months unless it is extended by the Government. The three months period already expired and, therefore, nothing survives in this writ petition. The writ petition is therefore dismissed as infructuous. No costs. _____________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) April 16, 2007. YS
