THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.1127 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner filed W.P.No.8398 of 2009 complaining that respondent No.4 encroached upon the bund of an irrigation tank and that respondent Nos. 1 to 3 did not take any steps. In W.P.M.P.No.10984 of 2009, an interim order was passed directing that respondent Nos. 1 to 3 shall ensure that no part of water area of an irrigation tank, namely Boyyanna Cheruvu and Kotha Cheruvu of Doulthapuram Village, Chennur Mandal, Kadapa District is put to any other use, be it by private individuals or by Government agencies. Respondents No.4 filed a counter-affidavit stating that 35 years ago, an extent of about Acs.60.00 of land in various survey numbers of that village was alienated in favour of respondent No.4. Allegation made by the petitioner in the affidavit filed in support of the contempt case is as regards encroachments said to have been made by respondent No.4 vis-à-vis the property of third parties. Though it is urged that respondent No.4 is trying to remove the sluices and tank bund, details thereof are not mentioned. At any rate, that does not come within the purview of the contempt case. Hence, the contempt case is closed. It is made clear that it shall be open to the petitioner or other affected parties to pursue their remedies, in case respondent No.4 has committed any illegality. __________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:15.10.2009. kdl
