IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) MONDAY, THE TWENTY FIRST DAY OF JULY, TWO THOUSAND EIGHT ONLY PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.15707 of 2000 Between: K.K. Viswanadham … Petitioner AND District Collector, Eluru, West Godavari District, & others. … Respondents Counsel for the petitioner : None Counsel for the respondents: AGP for Revenue This Court made the following: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.15707 of 2000 ORDER:- This writ petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in not taking action to remove the encroachments made on the land allotted for the purpose of Primary Health Center, Devarapalli, West Godavari District, as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioner sought for a consequential direction to direct the respondents to restore the land allotted for Primary Health Center. At the hearing, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue invited my attention to the averments contained in para 5 of the counter-affidavit filed by the Mandal Revenue Officer, Devarapalli Mandal, West Godavari District, wherein it is stated that after filing of the writ petition, encroachments were removed and compound wall was constructed. Since no reply affidavit is filed controverting these averments, the cause in the writ petition does not survive for consideration. The writ petition is therefore dismissed as infructuous. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition as infructuous, WPMP.No.19942 of 2000 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ____________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J Date: 21.07.2008 ES
