THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4421 of 2007 Dated:06.03.2007 Between: M/s Sri Sai Granites, rep.by its Working Partner, Tenali, Guntur District. …PETITIONER and Government of Andhra Predesh, rep. by its Secretary, Department of Mines and Geology, Hyderabad, and others. …RESPONDENT THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.4421 of 2007 ORDER: A perusal of the affidavit accompanying the writ petition would show that the petitioner’s endeavour to procure a mining lease for granite over certain extent of land in survey No.55/5 situated at Rajupalem, Laxmipuram Village, Cheemakurthy Mandal, Prakasam District, had a chequered career. It is, however, not necessary to advert to the same in detail. Suffice to say that after his request for grant of mining lease moved up and down between the original authority and the revisional authority as well as the proceedings before this Court at certain point of time, and ultimately second respondent rejected the request on 07.11.2005. Feeling aggrieved by the same, the petitioner preferred a revision under Rule 35-A of the Andhra Pradesh Minor Mineral Concession Rules, 1966, before the Government in November, 2005. As the same was not disposed of even after lapse of about one year and six months, instant writ petition is filed seeking appropriate direction. After getting instructions from first respondent, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Mines and Geology submits that as the records from the office of the Assistant Director of Mines and Geology, third respondent, were not received in time, the revision could not be disposed of. He submits that within a period of one month from today appropriate orders will be passed by first respondent in the revision petition filed by the petitioner. The same is recorded and the writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ____________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 06th March, 2007 ghn
