THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.9223 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner is an Association of A.P. (Beedi Leaves) Forest Contractors. The Government invited tenders for award of contracts to collect Abnus Leaves, every year. The successful bidders were awarded the contracts, and agreements are entered into, in the prescribed forms. The petitioner felt that Clauses (a), (c) and (d) of Condition No.34 of the Advance Sale Notice, and Condition No.6 of the Purchase Agreement are detrimental to the interests of its members. Accordingly, the petitioner submitted a representation dated 12-12-2008 to the respondents, with a request to take remedial steps. The grievance of the petitioner is that, no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Government Pleader for Forests. The petitioner straightaway prayed for a Writ of Mandamus, to declare that Condition No.34 of the advance sale notice, and Condition No.6 of the purchase agreement, for the current season, are illegal, irrational and unconstitutional. This Court is not inclined to examine the feasibility of granting the relief prayed for by the petitioner, at this stage. The reason is that, the representation made by the petitioner is yet to be disposed of by the respondents. It is only after the stand of the respondents is known, that any cause of action would accrue to the petitioner. The respondents cannot keep the representation, made by the petitioner, pending, indefinitely. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to pass appropriate orders on the representation dated 12-12-2008, submitted by the petitioner, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.30-04-2009. KO
