THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.22821 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioner is the Sarpanch of Nagireddypalli village, Veligandla Mandal, Prakasam District. It is stated that there is an extent of, about 370 acres of Government land, in Sy.No.272 in the Village, classiﬁed as grazing poramboke. An extent of 44 acres of that land is said to be under cultivation of 11 farmers. It is stated that the Gram Panchayat passed a resolution, recommending grant of pattas in favour of those cultivators. The petitioner states that, by yielding to the pressure of the local MLA, the respondents are now trying to grant pattas over the entire extent, to various persons. He contends that, if the pattas are granted over the entire land, there would not be any land available for grazing purposes. He seeks a declaration from this Court, that the action of the respondents, in this regard, is untenable in law. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Government Pleader for Revenue. The petitioner did not place any pattas, or other material before this Court, to buttress his contention. There is nothing on record to disclose that the respondents have omitted to take the common interest of the villagers, into account, while granting any pattas. Further, the petitioner can make representation, or the Gram Panchayt can pass resolution, suggesting as to how the available Government land be used. The respondents would take the same into account, whenever any steps are initiated, in respect of the land. Hence, the writ petition is dismissed, by leaving it open to the petitioner to make a representation to the respondents, as to the manner in which, the available Government land be used. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt:20-10-2008. KO
