Judgement Date : 8 February, 2021
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
WRIT PETITION NO.2869 OF 2021
ORDER:
This writ petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution
of India seeking the following relief:-
"....to issue Writ Order or Direction more particularly one in the nature of Writ of Mandamus, declaring the action of the respondents in not considering the representation dated 15.12.2020, as illegal, unjust, contrary to law, arbitrary and violative of principles of natural justice and consequently direct the respondents to consider the representation dated 15.12.2020 within two (02) weeks and pass any such order."
2. Though the petitioner made several allegations against the
respondents, during hearing, Sri Shaik Mohammed Ismail, learned
counsel for the petitioner limited his request to dispose of the
representation made by the petitioner on 15.12.2020, without
touching the merits of the case.
3. Learned Government Pleader for Services-I appearing for
respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation dated
15.12.2020 submitted by the petitioners, if any, pending with the
respondent-authorities.
4. In view of the learned Government Pleader for Services-I,
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. But, they do not service to
the cause of justice. As the learned counsel for the petitioner himself
2019 (8) SCALE 544
requested to issue a direction to dispose of the representation dated
15.12.2020 submitted by the petitioner, I find no other alternative,
except to issue such direction.
5. In the result, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the
respondent authorities to dispose of the representation submitted by
the petitioner dated 15.12.2020, in accordance with law, within four
(04) weeks from today. No costs.
As a sequel miscellaneous application, pending, if any, shall
also stand closed.
