S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 6128/2006. (SANTOSH VS. STATE & ORS.) DATE OF ORDER : 17.09.2007. HON'BLE MR. GOVIND MATHUR, J. Mr. H.S. Shrimali for the petitioner. A writ in the nature of mandamus is sought by the petitioner to direct the respondents not to close the existing outlet in Baganadia miner providing irrigation facility to his land. It is a condition precedent for seeking a writ in the nature of mandamus that the party aggrieved should first approach to the person against whom mandamus is sought, however, before approaching this Court, the petitioner has not agitated his cause to the competent authorities of the irrigation department, thus, this petition for writ is dismissed. The petitioner may approach the respondents for redressal of his grievances and on failure to get any relief or response in reasonable time he may avail appropriate remedy for redressal of his grievance.
