Sri Durga Goud, aged about 40 years, R/o. H.No. 2-119, Ghanpur Village, Toorpran Mandal, Medak District (A.P) … Petitioner And The Government of Andhra Pradesh, rep., by its Secretary, Industries & Commerce (Mines) Department, Secretariat, Hyderabad (AP) and six others … Respondents THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI MADAN B. LOKUR AND THE HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION No. 8854 OF 2009 ORDER: (per the Hon’ble the Chief Justice Shri Madan B. Lokur) 1. The present petition was filed apparently in public interest with a very bald allegation that illegal quarrying, illegal blasting and illegal mining near Ghanpur Village, Toopran Mandal, Medak District are going on. A direction was also prayed for monetary compensation for deaths caused to victims of such illegal blasting. 2. We have gone through the public interest petition and find that the averments are extremely general in nature. It is only after the petition was filed on these bald allegations that persons are being impleaded from time to time and interim orders are passed in respect of those persons. 3. A public interest litigation, if it is a genuine public interest litigation, should contain all the facts so that necessary action can be taken by the Court in the first instance. What the petitioner has done in the present petition is to make bald allegations and has thereby attempted to convert this Court into an investigating agency which is not permissible. However, we can understand a situation where specific allegations are made and then proceedings are initiated in public interest. But in the present case, no specific allegations have been made whatsoever. 4. We are not inclined to continue with this writ petition under these circumstances and it is accordingly dismissed. Writ Petition No. 8854 of 2009 Page 1 of 2 5. The interim orders also stand vacated and the miscellaneous applications are disposed of. MADAN B.
