Petitioners AND The Commissioner, Endowments Department, Boggulakunta, Tilaknagar, Hyderbaad and others .....Respondents Counsel for the Petitioners: Sri Prabhala Rajasekhar Counsel for Respondent Nos.1, 2 & 4: AGP for Endowments Counsel for Respondent No.3 : Sri V.T.M.Prasad The Court made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a mandamus to declare the inaction of respondent Nos.1 to 3 in considering the petitioners’ representation for remission in payment of rent/maktha for the first crop of the year 2010-2011 on account of crop damage caused by a cyclone, as illegal and arbitrary. Ordinarily, the dispute raised in the writ petition needs to be adjudicated by a civil Court of competent jurisdiction. However, as the petitioners are stated to have made representations to respondent No.1, without going into the merits of the case, respondent No.1 is directed to dispose of the petitioners’ representation, if already received, and communicate his decision to the petitioners, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If the petitioners feel aggrieved by the decision of respondent No.1, they shall be free to approach the civil Court of competent jurisdiction for redressal of their grievance. Subject to the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.6693 of 2011 filed by the petitioners for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 04th March, 2011 VGB
