HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE A.V.SESHA SAI W.P.No.3853 OF 2012

ORDER

It is represented by the learned counsel for both the parties that the subject matter of the writ petition is squarely covered by the decision of this Court passed in W.P.No.3559 of 2012 dated 11.8.2015. The relevant portion of the said order reads as under :

" The writ petition is accordingly disposed of permitting the petitioner to avail the alternative remedy afforded to him under the statute within four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. It would be open to the petitioner to raise before the statutory authority all the points urged by him before this Court in the present writ petition. The statutory authority shall thereupon adjudicate the matter after giving due opportunity of hearing to both parties and render a reasoned decision. By way of the said decision, it would be open to the statutory authority to confirm, modify or cancel the impugned demand notice. This exercise shall be completed expeditiously and in any event, not later than four weeks from the date of filing of the statutory appeal or revision, as the case may be.

In the event the petitioner fails to avail such statutory remedy within the time stipulated above, this order would stand re-called and the mining authorities would be at liberty to enforce the impugned demand notice. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed in the light of this final order. No order as to costs.

Following the said judgment and for the reasons given therein, this writ petition stands disposed of in terms thereof. A copy of the order in W.P.No.3559 of

2012 dated 11.8.2015 be annexed along with this order. No costs.

Miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed.
