THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.24217 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner is a Fishermen Co-operative Society, functioning at Akkinepally Village, Narketpally Mandal, Nalgonda District. Some controversy persisted, as to the admission of certain persons, as members. Initially, skill test is said to have been conducted in the year 2003, wherein only six, out of 23 applicants, were held qualiﬁed. The Assistant Inspector of Fisheries, the 3rd respondent, issued notice dated 06-11-2007, intimating that a skill test, in the presence of Three-man Committee would be conducted in the village, on 16-11- 2007. The petitioner challenges the notice. It is stated that, once the matter has been ﬁnalized in the year 2003, the exercise cannot be repeated, time and again. Other grounds are also urged. On behalf of the respondents 1 to 3, on the one hand, and the impleaded 4th respondent, on the other hand, separate counter-aﬃdavits are ﬁled. It is stated that the necessity to conduct skill test in the year 2007 arose, on account of the applications made by the intending persons, subsequently. It is stated that the skill test has since been conducted, and the results were not declared, on account of the pendency of the writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Government Pleader for Fisheries, and learned counsel for the 4th respondent. Through the impugned notice, the 3rd respondent had arranged for conducting of a skill test. Mere conducting of such a test, would not result in any membership, as such. It is only one of the steps, to be complied with, in the process of admitting the members. Ultimately, the admission of membership would be guided by the relevant provisions of the Act and the Rules. At any rate, the skill test has since been conducted. The petitioner is not able to point out any serious legal, or factual defect in the impugned notice. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt:22-10-2008. KO
