The Court at the stage of admission made the following : ORAL ORDER: Heard both sides. Perused the material placed before me. Petitioners seek a direction to the second respondent to dispose of their claim petition dated 10-3-2005 as expeditiously as possible as contemplated under G.O. Ms. No. 253, dated 3-3-2005. As per the said G.O., a committee was constituted and it came into existence with effect from 3-3-2005. It further appears that the petitioners submitted a claim petition dated 10-3-2005 to the second respondent seeking settlement. It further appears from the impugned G.O. that the committee has to complete the work entrusted to it within three months from the date of its constitution. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are apprehending that their application may not fall for consideration within short span of three months time. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, there is no need or urgency to pass any order in this writ petition. However, in view of the anxiety expressed by the petitioners, suffice it to close the writ petition with a hope that the committee would stand up to its expectations as enumerated in G.O. Ms. No. 253, Revenue Endowments-IV (2) Department, dated 03-3-2005. Accordingly, the writ petition is closed at the stage of admission. No costs. ---------------------- kvsn 16-03-2005 To 1 Government of A.P., rep. by its Prl.
