THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Writ Petition No.19185 OF 2008 ORDER: 1 Petitioner filed the present Writ Petition stating that he came to know that one more Electronic Weigh Bridge is required for establishment at Gaddi Annaram fruit market and hence he made several representations to the authorities concerned for allotment of space on lease for establishment of an Electronic Weigh Bridge. But, as no action was initiated, he approached this court and filed Writ Petition No.18537 of 2007, which was disposed of on 15.11.2007 giving liberty to the petitioner to make a representation to the 2nd respondent within two weeks from the date of the order and further directed the 2nd respondent to consider and dispose of the representation to be made by the petitioner within a period of four weeks thereafter. Subsequently the petitioner made a representation to the 2nd respondent on 22.11.2007. Petitioner further asserts that despite the order of this court in Writ Petition No.18537 of 2007 as the 2nd respondent did not consider his representation dated 22.11.2007 he filed Contempt Case No.239 of 2008 and after filing the said Contempt Case, the 2nd respondent rejected his representation on the ground that one weigh bridge is already working in the fruit market at Gaddi Annaram and due to heavy traffic congestion it has been shifted to the back side of the market from the entrance side due to non availability of space for establishment of another weigh bridge. As a result, the said contempt case was closed giving liberty to the petitioner to question the said rejection order dated 11.12.2007 passed by the 2nd respondent. 2 Petitioner further states that the 1st respondent by his letter dated 30.05.2005 communicated to the 3rd respondent stating that sufficient space is available at both the market yards i.e. at Fruit Market, Gaddi Annaram and Vegetable Market Yard, Bownepally and requested to accord permission for allotment of site on lease basis for installation of Electronic Weigh Bridge at both the market yards. The 1st respondent further requested the 3rd respondent by letter dated 12.02.2006 to explore the possibilities for establishment of 2nd weigh bridge at Gaddi Annaram Fruit Market and if there is need, tenders be called for and to furnish report. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the 2nd respondent is well aware of the above correspondence between the 1st and 3rd respondents and though he is aware of the fact that there is a need for establishment of second weigh bridge, with a malafide intention had rejected his representation without taking it into consideration. Hence he approached this court and filed the present Writ Petition. 3 Heard both sides. 4 Having regard to the fact that the petitioner had already made a representation to the petitioner on 22.11.2007 and since it is his grievance that the 2nd respondent had rejected the same without considering his request, this Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to give preference in considering the application of the petitioner for allotment of weigh bridge at the 2nd respondent market yard. No costs. --------------- 29-12-2009 kvsn
