Mandal Parishad Development Officer, Maddipadu Mandal Praja Parishad, Maddipadu, Prakasam District and another. RESPONDENTS Counsel for the petitioners: Sri Kurra Srinivas Counsel for the respondent: Sri G. Elisha Court made the following ORDER: Heard Sri Kurra Srinivas, learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri G. Elisha learned Standing Counsel for the respondents and with their consent the writ petition is disposed of at this stage. Mandal Praja Parishad, Maddipadu by a resolution dated 12.05.2011 resolved to take up certain works in the constituency and accordingly identified 48 works. The said works were subsequently modified by resolution dated 11.07.2011 restricting it to 10 works. The resolution was forwarded to the 1st respondent for administrative sanction. In the meanwhile, the State Government issued orders dated 19.05.2011 directing that no decision shall be taken having financial implications exceeding the 1/4th of annual action plan for the year 2011-2012 applying the restriction to all the existing commitments also. As the 1st respondent has not given administrative sanction, the petitioners have filed this writ petition. A counter affidavit is filed by the 1st respondent stating that after scrutinizing the proposals, he has granted administrative sanction for four works, and as regards the remaining six works awaiting for clarification from the Engineering Department. Therefore, the grievance of the petitioner is partly redressed to the extent of four works. In view of the orders of the State Government dated 19.05.2011 and having regard to the resolution passed by the Mandal Praja Parishad, the 2nd respondent is directed to communicate his decision to the 1st respondent regarding six works as early as possible within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and subject to the clarification, the 1st respondent shall consider granting administrative sanction within a period of four weeks thereafter. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _________________ NOUSHAD ALI, J. 20th August, 2011. Js. Note: C.C. by one weak.
