Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.T.BALASWAMI Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR PANCHAYAT RAJ & RURAL DEV. The Court made the following : ORDER: The petitioner is one of the members of Kishmathpur Gram Panchayat, Rajendra Nagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. He challenges the action of the Revenue Divisional Oﬃcer, Chavella, the third respondent herein, proposing to conduct the meeting to discuss motion of no conﬁdence against Upa- sarpanch. He pleads that the notice of no conﬁdence was served upon the Upa-sarpanch alone and no member of the Gram Panchayat is aware of it. He also pleads that himself and ﬁve members of the Gram Panchayat have submitted representations, dated 29.09.2008, to the third respondent, with a request to furnish the details and complain that their request has not been acceded to. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Panchayat Raj. Section 245 of the Andhra Pradesh Panchayat Raj Act, 1994 and the Rules made thereunder prescribe the procedure for convening meetings to discuss motions of no conﬁdence. It is not as if the petitioner is facing any no conﬁdence motion. The aggrieved party did not approach this Court. The third respondent is placed under obligation to serve notices on all the members. In fact, various methods of service of notice are prescribed. In case the notices were not properly served, the aggrieved party can certainly raise the issue during the course of meeting, or even at a later point of time. The petitioner does not have any cause of action to approach this Court. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ Dt.30.09.2008 L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J GJ
