Judgement Date : 28 December, 2021
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M. SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
WRIT PETITION NO.2192 OF 2015
ORDER:
This writ petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of
India seeking the following relief:
""to issue Writ of Mandamus declaring the action of Respondents in not taking any action on the representation of the Petitioner for allotment of land in Sy.No.88 an extent of Ac.2-50 Cts of Gollanapalli Village, Gannavaram Mandal, Krishna Dist as illegal arbitrary and against the law and consequently direct the Respondents to consider the representations dated 31.08.2013 and 02.05.2013 of the Petitioner for assignment of Ac.2-50 Cs In Sy.No.88 of GollanapalliV Gannavaram M Krishna District."
Though the petitioner made several allegations against the
respondents, during hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner
requested this Court, without touching the merits of the case, to
issue a direction to the respondents to dispose of the
representations of the petitioner dated 31.08.2013 and 02.05.2013
Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue readily
agreed to dispose of the representations of the petitioner dated
31.08.2013 and 02.05.2013, if any pending with the authorities.
In view of the submission of the learned Assistant
Government Pleader for Revenue, I need not decide the truth or
otherwise of the allegations made in the petition. This Court is
conscious that no such direction be issued, in view of the judgment
of the Apex Court in "The Government of India v. P.Venkatesh1",
wherein the Apex Court held that such orders may make for a quick
or easy disposal of cases in overburdened adjudicatory institutions.
2019 (8) SCALE 544
But, they do no service to the cause of justice. As the learned
counsel for the petitioner himself requested to issue a direction to
dispose of the representations of the petitioners dated 31.08.2013
and 02.05.2013, I find no other alternative except to issue such
direction.
In the result, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the
respondents to dispose of the representations dated 31.08.2013
and 02.05.2013 within four (04) weeks from today. No costs.
Consequently, miscellaneous applications pending if any,
shall stand closed.
