The petitioner is an Association of traders, who carry on their business activities in General Bazar, Secunderabad.

The petitioner states that its representations dated 24.12.2015, 29.12.2015 and 06.01.2016 made to various authorities are pending consideration, but no steps have been taken thereupon.

As the authorities concerned are yet to apply their mind to the grievances canvassed by the petitioner-Association through its many representations, this Court is not inclined to entertain the writ petition and adjudicate the same on merits.

This exercise shall be completed expeditiously and in any event, not later than four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
