IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD TUESDAY, THE THIRTIETH DAY OF AUGUST TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION No.24087 of 2011 Between: Shende Vinesh ..... PETITIONER AND The Government of Andhra Pradesh, Rep.by its Principal Secretary, Tribal Welfare Department, Secretariat, Hyderabad and 4 others .....RESPONDENTS The Court made the following: THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION No.24087 of 2011 ORDER: Petitioner has filed a suit before the Additional Agent to Government & Project Officer, ITDA, Utnoor on 29.07.2009, seeking eviction of the respondents from the suit schedule premises and for other reliefs. Petitioner states that on account of the acts of the respondents therein, resorting to unauthorized alienation etc., he had also filed an application for interim relief along with the suit, seeking to restrain Respondents Nos.1 and 2 therein from alienating any vacant land and machineries attached to the schedule theatre. The grievance of the petitioner is that though various dates of hearing were given, there is no progress in the suit and the 2nd respondent has not taken up either the suit or the interlocutory applications for consideration. When the matter had come up on last occasion i.e. on 26.08.2011, the learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare had sought time to get instructions. Now the learned Government Pleader, on instructions, states that since various suits are pending, six weeks time be granted to unable the 2nd respondent to pass orders. It is seen from the affidavit filed by the petitioner in support of this writ petition that there is urgency for hearing and disposal of the petitioner’s application for interim relief, filed in the suit. Since the suit is sufficiently old, I do not see any justification for the 2nd respondent in not taking up and passing appropriate orders on the interlocutory applications filed by the petitioner, at least. In the circumstances, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the 2nd respondent to hear and decide at least the interlocutory applications filed by the petitioner in the said suit, preferably, within four weeks from today, and thereafter, hear and decide the suit expeditiously. ________________________ VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR,J Dated: 30.08.2011 Dsr Note: Communicate the order within one week. B/o Dsr
