SODUM ANVESHA Counsel for the Respondent(S): 1. GP FOR FISHERIES 2. . 3. GP FOR IRRIGATION COMM AREA DEV 4. T V JAGGI REDDY The Court made the following: 17 VS,J W.P.No.12901 of 2020 THE HONOURABLE SMT JUSTICE V.SUJATHA WRIT PETITION NO: 12901/2020 ORDER: The present Writ Petition came to be filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking the following relief:- “…to issue an appropriate writ, order or direction mostly one which is in the nature of a writ of mandamus, declaring the inaction of the respondents 1 to 7 in taking appropriate steps for prevention of conversion of Gopalaraju irrigation tank situated in Sy.No.23 of Irripaka Village, Jaggampet Mandal East Godavari District to that of a fishing tank at the instance of the 8th respondent as illegal, irregular, arbitrary, unconstitutional, unjustified, unreasonable and unsustainable and consequently direct the respondents to maintain the Gopalaraju Cheruvu purely and exclusively for irrigation purposes only to cater to the needs of farmers under the ayacut of the said tank and pass such other order or orders…” 2. The present writ petitioners are farmers owning agricultural lands which are under ayacut of Gopalaraju Cheruvu in Irripaka Village, Jaggampet Mandal, East Godavari District. 3. The case of the petitioners is that the total extent of the ayacut is 548 acres belonging to 309 farmers and Gopala Raju Tank is situated in Sy.No.23 of Irripaka Village. The tank area is spread over 83 acres and the water of the said tank caters to the needs of 309 farmers by providing irrigation facility of 548 acres. 4. The grievance of the petitioners in the present case is that the 8th respondent herein, who belongs to the concerned Village and is the MLA of the ruling party in the State, has high-handedly mobilized heavy machinery at 18 VS,J W.P.No.12901 of 2020 the tank site in the last week of May, 2020, when there was no water in the tank, thereby obstructing the free flow of water to the farmers. 5. When the writ petition came up admission on 31.07.2020, this Court passed the following interim order:- “Heard learned Senior counsel for the petitioners Mr.P.Veera Reddy and learned Government Pleader for Irrigation. The grievance of the petitioners in the present writ petition is that the respondents are taking steps to convert Gopalaraju irrigation tank situated in Sy.No.23 of Irripaka village, Jaggampet Mandal, East Godavari District into fish tank at the instance of unofficial respondent. The learned counsel for the petitioners has placed reliance on the Revenue Village Sketch published under the Survey and Boundaries Act in the East Godavari District Gazettee, dated 22.04.1967 and submits that all the petitioners about 142 in number are beneficiaries of irrigation from the water drawn from the said Cheruvu from times immemorial. The learned counsel for the petitioners states that at the instance of the respondent No.8, the said Cheruvu is being converted into a fish tank. The learned Government Pleader for Irrigation on instructions submits that there is no such proposal and no conversion as alleged in the writ petition is being resorted to. In view of the submissions made, the respondents are granted time to file counter in the matter. Learned counsel for the petitioners is permitted to take out personal notice on unofficial respondent and file proof of the same within a period of three (3) weeks. Considering the submissions made, there shall be interim direction as prayed for.” 19 VS,J W.P.No.12901 of 2020 6. The 4th, 7th and 8th respondents filed a detailed counter. The 7th respondent, the Deputy Director of Fisheries has filed a counter affidavit, wherein it is stated that as per G.O.Rt.No.282, AH, DD & Fisheries (Fish) Dept., dated 20.11.2019, the fishing rights for fasli years 1429 to 1431 in Gopalaraju Cheruvu at Irripaka Village along with Konetivari tank, both located in Jaggampeta Mandal, were leased out in favour of M/s Sri Venkateswara Fishermen Cooperative Society Limited, Jaggampeta Mandal, by the 7th respondent vide proceedings No.2627/A3/2019-1, dated 16.07.2020, after duly obtaining permission from the 5th respondent. 7. It is also admitted by the 7th respondent that the said tank comes under the purview and control of the Irrigation Department and as per G.O.Ms.No.776 Food & Agriculture (F.II) Dept., dated 31.12.1990, the Fisheries Department has been leasing out the fishing rights in all such Irrigation tanks by giving first priority to the eligible genuine Fishermen Cooperative Society from time to time. 8. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Assistant Government Pleaders for Irrigation & Fisheries and as well as learned counsel representing the 8th respondent herein. 9. Learned counsel for the petitioners, during the course of arguments, has admitted the fact that the said tank has been leased out in favour of M/s Sri Venkateswara Fishermen Cooperative Society Limited for three fasli years and has further stated that, as per the proceedings of the Joint Director of 20 VS,J W.P.No.12901 of 2020 Fisheries, East Godavari District, Kakinada, dated 16.07.2020, through which the Gopalaraju Cheruvu was leased out in favour of M/s Sri Venkateswara Fishermen Cooperative Society Limited, there is a specific condition that the said fishermen cooperative society should utilize the water available in the tank without obstructing free flow of water to the fields or damaging the tank. But however, the 8th respondent has been high-handedly mobilizing heavy machinery at the tank site whenever there is no water in the tank, due to which the farmers are facing difficulty. 10. As per the counter affidavit filed by the 7th respondent, it can be observed that since the Gopalraju Irrigation Tank is a minor irrigation canal as per G.O.Ms.No.776, the Irrigation Department leased out the said tank in favour of M/s Sri Venkateswara Fishermen Cooperative Society Limited initially for three fasli years from 1429 to 1431 i.e., from 01.07.2019 to 30.06.2022 and the lease has been extended for a further period of three years till 30.06.2025. It is nowhere the case of the petitioners that Sri Venkateswara Fishermen Cooperative Society has initiated any steps or violated the conditions of the proceedings issued by the Joint Director of Fisheries on 16.07.2020, while the said tank has been leased out in its favour. But however, the entire grievance of the petitioners is that the 8th respondent has been altering the nature of the Irrigation Tank by using heavy machinery whenever there is no water in the tank. In view of the same, instead of keeping the writ petition pending, this Court feels it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition. 21 VS,J W.P.No.12901 of 2020 11. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of by directing the respondents to see that the Gopalraju Irrigation Tank shall not be utilized for any other purpose except for fish rearing by leasing out in favour of the eligible Fishermen Cooperative Society in accordance with G.O.Ms.No.776 and also to see that the nature of the tank shall not be altered by any third persons. No costs. Consequently miscellaneous applications pending, if any, in the Writ Petition, shall also stand closed. ___________________ JUSTICE V.SUJATHA Date : 09.09.2025 JLV 22 VS,J W.P.No.12901 of 2020 544 THE HONOURABLE SMT JUSTICE V.SUJATHA WRIT PETITION NO: 12901/2025 Dt.09.09.2025 JLV
