HON'BLE THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE DILIP B. BHOSALE AND HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P. NAVEEN RAO Writ Petition No.16089 of 2016 PC: (per the Hon'ble the Acting Chief Justice Dilip B. Bhosale) Heard Mr. E. Manohar, learned Senior Counsel for the petitioners and Smt. A. Jayanthi, learned Government Pleader for respondent Nos.1 to 5.

We have heard this writ petition and perused all relevant materials placed on record. Learned counsel for the parties have agreed for order that we propose to pass and they have fairly stated that we need not record reasons for the same. Hence, we dispose of this writ petition by the following order. "1. Respondent No.5-Assistant Director of Mines & Geology shall take inventory of the minerals stored in the stock yards in the presence of the petitioners, covered by the letters impugned in the writ petition, within a period of one week from today and shall preserve the record thereof, till respondent No.2 takes a decision whether to proceed against the petitioners in respect of alleged illegal excavation of the said stock of minerals. Respondent No.5, thereafter, shall allow the petitioners to deal with the said minerals, stored in the stock yards, in accordance with the rules. This, however, shall be subject to action, if any, the respondents propose to take against the petitioners, in respect thereof. It is needless to mention that after completing the exercise of conducting

inventory, the concerned authorities may issue transit passes, in accordance with rules."

Consequently, pending miscellaneous petitions shall also stand closed.
