THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA WRIT PETITION No.6236 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioners are aggrieved by the action of respondent Nos.1 and 2 in entertaining the applications of one Ramkey Infrastructure Limited for conducting mining operations in Survey No.295/2/A1 of Gundlapalli Village, Nakirekal Mandal, Guntur District. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that earlier also applications were filed in the names of different persons for conducting mining operations in the said Village and the same were dismissed. Learned counsel further submits that the second respondent has issued notices inviting the objections from the villagers of Gundlapalli Village, pursuant to which, the petitioners have submitted their objections in writing. The grievance of the petitioners is that an opportunity of hearing be given to them while disposing of their applications and a copy of the order be communicated to any of them. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioners, since the second respondent invited objections from the petitioners, it is clear that he has an intention of hearing the petitioners before deciding the same. Resultantly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction that the second respondent shall hear any of the petitioners before disposing of the objections in accordance with law. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________________ JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA 11.03.2011 KH
