Citation : 2021 Latest Caselaw 2760 AP
Judgement Date : 30 July, 2021
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
WRIT PETITION NO.14773 OF 2021
ORDER:
This writ petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution
of India seeking the following relief:-
"....to issue a 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 06.08.2019 submitted by the petitioner as illegal and discriminatory and violative of Article 14, 16 of Constitution of India and direct to the respondent No.3 to forthwith consider the said representation for issuance of NOC with regard to Plot No.145E in RS.No.43/1, Tenneti Nagar, Madhavadhara, Visakhapatnam vide Revised LP.No.13/91 of Urban Development Authority, Visakhapatnam and pass such other order or orders."
2. Though the petitioner made several allegations against the
respondents, during hearing, Sri R.K.Acharyulu, learned counsel for
petitioner limited his request to dispose of the representation made
by the petitioner dated 06.08.2019, without touching the merits of
the case.
3. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue, appearing
for respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation
06.08.2019 submitted by the petitioners, if any, pending with the
respondent-authorities.
4. Recording the submissions of the learned 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. But, they do not
2019 (8) SCALE 544
serve to the cause of justice. As the learned counsel for the petitioner
himself requested to issue a direction to dispose of the
representation dated 06.08.2019 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
respondents to dispose of the representation submitted by the
petitioner dated 06.08.2019, in accordance with law, within four (04)
weeks from today, by giving opportunity to the concerned. No costs.
As a sequel miscellaneous application, pending, if any, shall
also stand closed.
