HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO.30644 OF 2010 ORDER: Petitioner who is the successful bidder in the auction held by the respondents on 20.04.2010 for Reach No.14, of Korumili village and Mandal of East Godavari District, has entered into a lease deed for quarrying sand and removal of stranded and damaged vehicles on ramps in the said Reach. The petitioner was granted for lease for a period of two years i.e., from 1.5.2010 to 31.3.2012 in terms of order of confirmation. The petitioner had approached this Court in December, 2010 alleging that it is necessary for the petitioner to strengthen the ramps and for that purpose, the use of machinery limited for strengthening of the ramp was being disallowed by the respondents and as such sought a direction that the respondents shall not interfere with laying or strengthening of the ramp for quarrying sand and removal of stranded, damaged or stuck up vehicles in the said ramp. While admitting the writ petition on 15.12.2010, this court granted limited interim direction directing the respondents to allow the petitioner to use the machinery only for forming ramps, but no such machinery shall be used for the purpose of excavation of sand in terms of the lease deed as provided under Rule 9-(x)(e) of A.P. Minor Mineral Rules, 1966. 2. Counter-affidavit is filed by the respondents reiterating the same rule position. The petitioner had already strengthened the ramps in accordance with interim directions referred to above and hence there is no subsisting grievance for the petitioner to be considered by this Court. 3. In view of the above, the Writ Petition is dismissed as the cause in the Writ Petition does not survive any more. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________________ VILAS V.
