THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.4869 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner claims to be the owner of 3 acres of land in Sy.No.446-B of Daivalamadugu Village, Yadiki Mandal, Ananthapur District. She dug a bore-well before the A.P. Water, Land and Trees Act, 2002 (for short ‘the Act’) came into force. The 3rd respondent is the owner of the neighbouring land. The petitioner states that the 3rd respondent dug a bore-well in the recent past, without obtaining any permission under the Act, within 15 feet from her bore-well. The petitioner approached the Authorities of the Revenue Department, as well as the A.P. Legal Services Authority. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the respondents 1 and 2 have taken steps for closing the bore-well dug by the 3rd respondent, it was not effected, and the 3rd respondent is still harassing her. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The petitioner had knocked the doors of the Revenue Authorities as well as the A.P. Legal Services Authority, feeling aggrieved by the digging of the bore-well by the 3rd respondent. Acting on the representation made by her, the Revenue Authorities have taken certain steps. A perusal of the letter dated 27-04-2006 addressed by the Mandal Revenue Officer, Yadiki, to the Junior Civil Judge, Tadipatri, reveals that the 3rd respondent has closed the bore- well by filling it with stones and earth, in the presence of the villagers. The petitioner still made out a grievance. The Legal Services Authority appointed an Advocate Commissioner, who in turn, submitted a report on 05-08-2006. It is stated that the petitioner was not able to point out the existence of bore-well in the land of the 3rd respondent, and even when the place shown by the petitioner was dug for certain extent, the bore-well was not noticed. From this, it becomes evident that the petitioner is only trying to harass the 3rd respondent. The writ petition is frivolous in nature, and it is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ Dt.12-03-2009. L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. KO
