It is brought to the notice of this Court that in similar

following the earlier interim order dated 18.11.2021 passed by a

order dated 24.11.2021, the operative portion of which reads as
under:
"In one of the Writ Appeals i.e., W.A. No.724 of
2021, the Coordinate Bench has passed interim order
staying the operation of the order of the single Judge,
in so far as it concerns payment of interest to the writ
petitioners<br>also<br>regarding<br>setting<br>aside<br>the<br>as
provision in Memo No. 1263069/RD.II/A1/2020, dated
and<br>the<br>No.1388361/RD.II/A1/<br>05.11.2020<br>Memo
dated<br>relating<br>deduction<br>of<br>2020,<br>12.05.2021<br>to
21.02% for DCC works and 6.333% for MCC works, at
the same time, recording submissions made by the
learned Advocate General that the direction of the
learned single Judge as far as payment of the principal
amount of the bills raised by the writ petitioners, in
terms of the orders of the Division Bench dated
02.11.2021 in W.P. (PIL) No.166 of 2019 in Krishna
District Grama Panchayathi Sarpanchla Sangam
v. The State of Andhra Pradesh and others,

the Coordinate Bench, we direct that the said interim

however, with a condition that the appellants shall pay
the principal amount of the bill raised by the original
writ petitioners, within a period of four weeks, failing
which the present interim order shall stand vacated
without reference to the bench."
The issue involved being one and the same, there shall be

6.333% for MCC works, while making payment, shall remain
stayed. However, the appellants shall pay the principal amount of
the bills<br>raised by<br>the writ petitioner within a period of four
weeks, failing which this<br>interim order shall stand vacated
without reference to the Bench.
Post this case along with W.A.No.724 of 2021 & batch.
