Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.PETTEMRAJAIAH Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR GENERAL ADMINISTRATION The Court made the following : ORAL ORDER: This is a fundamentally misconceived writ petition. The grievance of the petitioner as is apparent from the pleadings of this writ petition is that the 1st respondent, a member of the Indian Administrative Service and currently working as the Commissioner of Seri Culture, Hyderabad is continuing in that office to the inconvenience of the petitioner. The petitioner asserts to have complained against the 1st respondent to the Human Rights Commission, A.P., which took cognizance of the complaint, on 30.6.2009. He filed another complaint against the 1st respondent before the A.P. Lokayukta, Hyderabad on 16.6.2009. The petitioner states that the Lokayukta has taken cognizance of the complaint as well and directed the 1st respondent to appear on 19.8.2009. Not satisfied with these strategies against the 1st respondent, the petitioner states that as the 1st respondent has committed numerous irregularities including taking vindictive action against his subordinates, this court should direct the 2nd respondent to transfer the 1st respondent out of the post of the Commissioner of Seri Culture, Hyderabad to another post. In substance, the petitioner invites the judicial branch to perform executive functions. Such invitation is subversive of the fundamental notions of separation of powers under the Constitution. The writ petition is misconceived and is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ____________________ GODA RAGHURAM,J 21.7.2009. KRB.
