Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION NO.18630 OF 2009 ORDER: The petitioner filed this writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, seeking a writ of Mandamus declaring that the action of the respondents 1 to 3 in not providing protection to the petitioner and her men who are attending on sanitary works in the Gram Panchayat and in not taking any action against the respondents 5 to 13 who have been continuously threatening the petitioner and her men while executing contract work is highly arbitrary, bad and illegal. The main grievance of the petitioner is that she was given the contract works i.e., attending sanitary works for Bhoopalpally gram Panchayat, 4th respondent, and as respondent Nos.5 to 13 are continuously threatening the petitioner and her men while executing the said contract works, she approached the police and gave representations dated 09.08.2009 and 26.08.2009. But, however, necessary protection has not been provided for and hence, she approached this Court and filed the present writ petition. The learned Assistant Government Pleader, on instructions, submitted that the State House Officer, Bhupalpally Police Station did not receive any such complaint and they are in fact prepared to provide the required protection, provided they attend to the work and give a representation.

Accordingly, this Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J October 05, 2009 KSH
