THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI WRIT PETITION No.7493 of 2011 Date: 23.03.2011 Between: Challa Subba Rao and another. … Petitioner and The Agent to the Government (Tribal Welfare), (District Collector), West Godavari District, Eluru and others. … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI WRIT PETITION No.7493 of 2011 ORDER : Heard Sri Naram Nageswara Rao, learned counsel appearing for the petitioners as well as the learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare appearing for respondent Nos.1 and 2 and with the consent of both the counsel, the writ petition is being disposed of at the admission stage. 2. The petitioners filed suit O.S.No.13 of 2008 on the file of the 2nd respondent-Special Assistant Agent to Government (Tribal Welfare) and Revenue Divisional Officer, Jangareddygudem, West Godavari District, against respondent No.3 seeking permanent injunction from interfering with their possession and enjoyment of the plaint schedule property, the details of which and the cause of action need not be gone into for the purpose of disposal of this writ petition. Suffice it to state that the said suit was dismissed by judgment and decree dated 20.11.2010. Against the said judgment and decree, the petitioners preferred an appeal along with an ad- interim injunction application before the 1st respondent-Agent to Government (Tribal Welfare) and District Collector, West Godavari District, Eluru. The office of the 1st respondent received the said appeal on 4.3.2011. The limited grievance presented by the petitioners in this writ petition is that the appellate authority has neither considered the said appeal nor the interlocutory application so far. The petitioners state that unless urgent orders are passed either in the interlocutory application or in the appeal, they would be deprived of their property. 3. I am not inclined to go into the merits of the case. Indisputably, the appeal along with the interlocutory application has been received by the office of the 1st respondent on 4.3.2011. In view of the urgency pleaded by the petitioners, the appellate authority ought to have taken up the matter either for granting interim order or hearing of the appeal. As the appellate authority has not done so, it is appropriate to direct disposal of either the interlocutory application or the appeal within a time frame. 4. In the circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent-Agent to Government (Tribal Welfare) and District Collector, West Godavari District, to consider the interlocutory application and dispose of the same after giving notice to all the parties concerned as early as possible, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI 23.03.2011. Note: Issue C.C. in three days.
