THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SRI ANIL R. DAVE AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT APPEAL NO.950 OF 2009 Dt.26.8.2009 Between: M. Govindaiah … Appellant And District Collector, Nalgonda District, Nalgonda and others … Respondents THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SRI ANIL R. DAVE AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT APPEAL NO.950 OF 2009 JUDGMENT: (per the Hon’ble the Chief Justice Sri Anil R. Dave) The appellant is the original petitioner who had filed Writ Petition No.21014 of 2005 alleging that no action was being taken against respondent No.4 in accordance with the provisions of Andhra Pradesh Water, Land and Trees Act, 2002 (for short, “the Act”) though he had dug a borewell in contravention of the provisions of the Act. The petition had been rejected for the reason that action has already been taken by the respondent authorities against respondent No.4. The grievance made in this appeal is that the concerned government authorities did not take action in accordance with law. A counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of respondent No.3 – Tahsildar, Arvapally Mandal, Nalgonda District, to the effect that not only respondent No.4 even the appellant – original petitioner has also dug a borewell in contravention of the provisions of the Act and appropriate action is being taken against respondent No.4 and the appellant. In view of the above development in the mater, we do not find any substance in the appeal. We are sure that appropriate action shall be taken against the appellant as well as respondent No.4 in accordance with law by the concerned authority. The appeal is dismissed with no order as to costs. ______________ ANIL R. DAVE, CJ ______________________ C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 26.8.2009 bnr
