HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.5072 of 2007 Dated:02.04.2007 Between: Malapati Chinnakka. …Petitioner and The District Collector and others. …Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.5072 of 2007 ORDER: The Sarpanch of Punugodu Village of Kanigiri Mandal in Prakasam District is the petitioner herein. She is aggrieved by the action of the respondents in sanctioning and allotting works under Development Programme to private persons. She seeks a writ of mandamus to set aside the works allotted by the respondents to private persons. It is the case of the petitioner that as per the orders of the Government in G.O.Ms.No.37, dated 18.02.2005, all the works whose estimated cost is below five lakhs have to be allotted to Works Committee/self help groups in the Village level and nominees of such Committees. However, the second respondent allotted the work of laying water pipelines and construction of water tank in Punugodu Village to private persons ignoring the Government Orders. After hearing the learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Panchayat Raj, this Court is of considered opinion that unless and until the third parties in whose favour works are allotted by the second respondent are made parties, no relief can be granted to the petitioner. Be that as it is, the petitioner allegedly made representation on 15.11.2006 before the first respondent seeking redressal. Therefore, liberty is given to the petitioner to approach the first respondent and seek necessary redressal. The Writ Petition, with the above observations, is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ____________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 02.04.2007 vs
