RAMANA WRIT PETITION No.22516 OF 2008 ORDER: The only grievance of the petitioner is that, aggrieved by the proceedings dated 10.09.2008, issued by the Chief Executive Oﬃcer, A.P. State Wakf Board, constituting Managing Committee for the Mosque namely Masjid-e- Mohammadi situated at Kakatiyanagar Colony (Birban), Nanal Nagar, Hyderabad, he submitted a representation, dated 29.09.2008, to the Secretary of A.P. State Wakf Board, seeking to withdraw the said proceedings dated 10.09.2008, but so far no action has been taken on the said representation. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for A.P. State Wakf Board appearing for the 1st respondent. Since the only grievance of the petitioner is of non- consideration of his representation, without going into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to direct the Secretary, A.P. State Wakf Board, to consider the representation, dated 29.09.2008, submitted by the petitioner and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _____________ N.V. RAMANA,J 16th October, 2008 IBL
