Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.25209 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner claims to have established a private school under NCLP Scheme at Parampudi Village, Koyyalagudem, West Godavari District. It is stated that the facility of mid-day meals was being extended to the students of that school upto the academic year 2007-2008, but was stopped thereafter without any basis. On a representation made by the petitioner, the District Educational Officer, third respondent herein, issued proceedings dated 08.05.2008 directing the Mandal Educational Officer, Koyyalagudem, fourth respondent herein, to implement the said facility for the students of the institution established by the petitioner. The grievance of the petitioner is that no action has been taken thereon so far. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, the learned Government Pleader for Education and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue. From a perusal of the proceedings dated 08.05.2008 issued by the third respondent, it is evident that he acted upon the representation made by the petitioner and directed the fourth respondent to take necessary steps. If the said proceedings are still in force, the fourth respondent cannot ignore the same. Further, if there exists any impounding reasons for not implementing the said facility, the same need to be communicated to the petitioner. Hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing that :- (a) the fourth respondent shall implement the proceedings dated 08.05.2008 issued by the third respondent within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order; (b) in case there exists any reasons or grounds for not implementing the said facility, they shall be communicated to the petitioner within that period. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J 02nd December, 2009 Note: Issue CC in three days. (B/o) GHN
