IN THE HIGH COURT OF BOMBAY AT GOA WRIT PETITION NO. 399 OF 2010 MR. SHANE FRANCISCO DIAS ... Petitioner Versus STATE OF GOA THROUGH THE CHIEF SECRETARY AND 8 ORS ... Respondent Mr. J. Abreu Lobo, Advocate for the Petitioner. Mr. M. Salkar, Additional Government Advocate for the Respondent Nos. 1 to 5. Respondent Nos. 6 to 9 present in person. Coram:- A. S. OKA & F. M. REIS, JJ. Date:- 1st July, 2010 P.C. Heard the learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner and the learned Additional Government Advocate for the Respondent Nos. 1 to 5. Respondent Nos. 6 to 9 are personally present in the Court. The allegation of the Petitioner is that 6th to 9th Respondents are indulging in illegal filling work of the agricultural lands which is the subject matter of the present Petition. The report submitted by the Town Planner dated 27th May, 2010 to the concerned Police Officer is placed on record. The learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner makes a grievance that clause (4) of the said report is factually incorrect and the work of filling of the lands bearing survey Nos.33/9 and 33/10 of Socorro Village is still in progress which is in violation of Section 17-A of TCP Act, 1974. Along with additional affidavit of the Petitioner, he has placed on record the certain recent photographs. He states that the said photographs show that further dumping work has been done. 2. After having perused the photographs annexed to the Petition and the photographs tendered today, at this stage, we find that there is no necessity of entertaining this Petition. The apprehension expressed by the learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner is that the concerned Respondents will start construction work in the agricultural fields. On the perusal of the photographs and report dated 27th May, 2010, we find that at this stage, there is no basis in the apprehension expressed by the Petitioner. We are, therefore, not inclined to entertain the Petition at this stage. It is obvious that in case of any violation of law, the authorities are expected to act in accordance with law and take necessary action. The Petition is accordingly disposed of. A. S. OKA, J. F. M.
