		I.A.No.1 of 2022
		Heard respective counsels appearing on
		both sides. Perused the material available<br>on
		record.

The grievance of the petitioner is that the 12th respondent without obtaining any permission required under law is digging the prawn tanks in R.S.Nos.71/1, 71/14, 71/15, 71/2a, 71/2b, 71/3, 71/4 and 71/5 total an extent of Ac.4.10 cents situated at Challapalli Village, Uppalaguptham Mandal, Dr.BR Ambedkar Konaseema District. Aggrieved by the action of the 12th respondent, the petitioner made a complaint on 04.06.2022 to the 4th respondent. Complaining inaction of the respondents in stopping the activities of the 12th respondent, the present Writ Petition is filed.
Learned Government Pleader for Fisheries on instructions submits that the contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is correct. The 12th respondent without obtaining any permission is proceeding to dig the prawn tanks in the said land. The learned Government Pleader for Fisheries further submits that the respondent authorities orally instructed the 12th respondent to stop his activities.

On careful perusal of the submissions made by the respective counsels, this Court is of the prima facie opinion that the respondent authorities failed to take action on the complaint made by the petitioner to the 4th respondent on 04.06.2022. As and when the 12th respondent is proceeding to dig the prawn tanks in the said land without obtaining any permission required under law, knowing the same, the official respondents did not take any action against the 12th respondent even after submission of the complaint dated 04.06.2022 by the petitioner. 5. In view of the above, the petitioner is entitled for the relief sought in this interlocutory application. 6. Accordingly, there shall be an interim direction as prayed for. _________ DEV, J Note: Furnish C.C today. B/o. tm
