THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.9145 of 2011 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioner seeks a mandamus declaring the action of respondents 1 and 2 in not protecting him from the illegal extraction of fish by the third parties from the tank, which is in the area of operation of the second respondent society, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioner that he is an agreement holder to extract fish from the tank, which is in the area of the operation of the second respondent society. It is stated that for that purpose, certain amounts were paid to the second respondent society. It is the grievance of the petitioner that some third parties are catching fish from the tank, which is subject matter of the agreement entered between him and the second respondent society, and when he lodged a complaint before the police, they are not accepting the same. Except the aforesaid allegation of the petitioner, there is no material produced before this Court in proof of it. In any event, when a complaint is filed, it is the duty of the Station House Officer to look into the contents thereof and take appropriate action. In that view of the matter, as the very plea of the petitioner is that the first respondent – Station House Officer, Allagadapa Rural Police Station, Nalgonda District, is not accepting his complaint, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to permit the petitioner to submit a written complaint to the first respondent and if any such complaint is filed, the first respondent shall examine the same and take steps in accordance with law. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 7th APRIL, 2011. Note: issue c.c. by tomorrow. kvni
