IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P.S.NARAYANA W.P.NO.26377 OF 2009. Date:04.12.2009 Between:- Sri Mudavath Raju ..Petitioner And The Government of Andhra Pradesh, rep.by its Principal Secretary, Panchayatraj Department, Secretariat, Hyderabad and others. .. Respondents ORDER:- The matter is coming up for admission. The learned Assistant Government Pleader for Panchayat Raj takes notice on behalf of respondent Nos.1 to 4. Sri G.Elisha, learned Standing Counsel for Gram Panchayat takes notice on behalf of respondent Nos.5 and 6. Sri N.Ravi Prasad, learned counsel representing respondent No.7, filed counter affidavit. The writ petition is filed seeking to declare the proceedings No.210/2009-B2 (Panchayatraj) dated 02.11.2009 of respondent No.2 as illegal and arbitrary, and to set aside the same. It is not a serious controversy that the writ petitioner already filed revision before respondent No.1 under Section 264 of the Andhra Pradesh Gram Panchayat Raj Act, 1994 on various grounds and it is also the case of the writ petitioner that though a stay application has been filed along with the revision, respondent No.1 had not chosen to pass any order whatsoever. No doubt, certain submissions were made by the learned counsel representing the writ petitioner that there was no independent application of mind in making such an impugned order and strong reliance was placed in the decision reported in Rekapalli Krishna Vasu Vs. State of Andhra Pradesh and others[1] in this regard. This Court is not inclined to express any opinion touching the merits and demerits of the case for the reason that the revision filed by the writ petitioner is pending before respondent No.1 and the application for interim order had also been filed. In the light of the facts and circumstances, let respondent No.1 dispose of the stay application filed by the writ petitioner along with the revision, within a period of three (3) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, and till then, status quo, as on today, shall be maintained. The writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ P.S.NARAYANA, J 4th December, 2009 Note:- Furnish C.C. within two days B/O AMD [1] 20055(5) ALD 276
