THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.21499 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioners claim to have submitted representation dated 17-05-2008 to the District Panchayat Oﬃcer, the 3rd respondent, alleging that the Sarpanch of Keeesara Dayara Mandal, the 1st respondent herein, is indiscriminately according permissions for construction of houses over the land in Sy.No.204, without verifying the boundaries. They submit that they are the owners of the land in Sy.No.204 of Keesara Dayara Village. The petitioners contend that they have ﬁled O.S.No.158 of 2008 in the Court of Junior Civil Judge, Medchal, to protect their possession. They complain that the respondents 2 and 3 have not taken any steps on their representation. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, learned Government Pleader for Panchayat Raj, and learned Standing Counsel for the 1st respondent. The A.P. Panchayat Raj Act and the Rules made thereunder, confer power upon the Gram Panchayat, to accord permission for construction. If any person feels aggrieved by such permission, he has to avail the remedy of appeal. The Appellate Authority would have an occasion to examine the matter, with reference to the record. Further, the parties are also entitled to protect their rights, by approaching the Civil Court. The petitioners state that they have already approached the Civil Court. In their representations, dated 17-05-2008, the petitioners did not make reference of any individual permission. In the absence of such details, the respondents 2 and 3 are not expected to take any concrete action. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of. It shall be open to the petitioners to prefer an appeal, as and when the 1st respondent, or the Gram Panchayat, accords permission, contrary to their interests. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt:29-09-2008. KO
