W.P.(MD).No.17068 of 2019 2.The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner submitted so many representations to remove the encroachments at Paramanivayal Pond by the encroachers before the revenue authorities. After receipt of the same, they did not take any action to remove the encroachers. Therefore, the petitioner decided to conduct demonstration on 10.07.2019 at about 11.00.a.m. In this regard, he made a representation to the second respondent and the same was rejected for the reason that Section 30(2) of the Police Act is in force in the said area. Further, it was stated that the dispute is regarding water resources and as such, it has to be enquired by the revenue authorities. Hence, this writ petition.
3. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that the petitioner wants to conduct demonstration for non action of the revenue authorities. The second respondent rejected the request for the reason that already Section 30(2) of the Police Act is in force in the said area. Further, the petitioner sought for permission not only conduct demonstration and also seeking permission to use loud speaker and protection. Therefore, the second respondent rightly rejected the request made by the petitioner to conduct demonstration against the officials, who are not acted upon the representation submitted by the petitioner.
4.On perusal of the records, it is seen that the demonstration was to be conducted on 10.07.2019, the period is also over, therefore, this Writ Petition is devoid of merits. Accordingly, this Writ Petition is dismissed. No costs.
