With their consent, the Writ Petition is taken up for disposal at the admission stage. The petitioner claims to be the absolute owner and possessor of the agricultural land admeasuring Acs.18.20 gts situated in Survey Nos.52, 53 and 76 of Chimnaik Thanta, Nagapur Village, Utnoor Mandal, Adilabad District. He states that there are 65 teak trees existing on the said land. He further states that he made representations to respondents 3 and 4 and on their inaction; he made a representation dated 21.04.2011 to the first respondent. The first respondent has called for a report vide his proceedings in Rc.No.15235/2011/FM-2 dated 23.04.2011. The petitioner states that even though considerable time has lapsed, the first respondent has not passed any orders so far. He has, therefore, filed this Writ Petition for the aforesaid relief. Indisputably, the petitioner made representation on 21.04.2011 and the first respondent has called for a report under his proceedings dated 23.04.2011. There does not appear to have any progress thereafter. In matters of this nature, whenever parties approach and seek remedy under the statute, the authorities are expected to pass orders expeditiously. Having regard to the fact that considerable time has lapsed ever since 23.04.2011, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to pass appropriate orders and finally, dispose of the representation of the petitioner dated 21.04.2011 in accordance with law, as early as possible, preferably within a period of three {3} weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________ (NOUSHAD ALI, J) 13th June 2011 Note: CC by three days B/O RRB
