THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.TUKARAMJI
M. Uday Shankar Rao – Appellant
Versus
STATE OF TELANGANA – Respondent
WP 20663/2019
IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATE OF TELANGANA AT HYDERABAD THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.TUKARAMJI WRIT PETITION No.20663 OF 2019 DATE: 02-02.2026 Between :
M. Uday Shankar Rao … Petitioner AND The State of Telangana, Represented by its Principal Secretary, Home Department, Secretariat, Hyderabad, and six others.
…
Respondents.
O R D E R:
This Writ Petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking the following relief:
“…To issue Writ, Order or Direction, or any other appropriate Order one in the nature of a WRIT OF MANDAMUS declaring the action of the respondent Nos.2 and 3 in not taking any action against the respondents 4 to 7 who are the accused 1 to 4 in Crime No.133/2019 on the file of Panjagutta police station for the last 5½ months, as arbitrary and illegal and contrary to the Cr.P.C. and consequently direct the respondent Nos.2 and 3 to take action………”
2. None appeared on behalf of the petitioner.
3. The learned Government Pleader for Home, on written instructions, submits that after due enquiry in Crime No. 133 of 2019, a final report was filed citing “lack of evidence” on 16.09.2019 before the learned XIV Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad. Accordingly, the contention of the petitioner that no action was taken against the unofficial respondents pursuant to the crime, no longer survives for consideration and he prays for dismissal of the petition.
4. I have perused the material available on record.
5. The petitioner contends in this petition that respondent No. 3 has not taken any action against respondent Nos. 4 to 7, who are accused Nos. 1 to 4 in Crime No. 133 of 2019, and seeks appropriate directions. However, having regard to the developments during the pendency of this petition, particularly the filing of the final report and the closure of the crime proceedings, the grievance of the petitioner has been effectively addressed by the police. In these circumstances, the petitioner’s prayer does not survive for adjudication.
6. The petitioner, however, retains the right to seek appropriate remedies against the final report before the competent Magistrate, in accordance with law, if any cause of action still subsists.
7. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed as infructuous. There shall be no order as to costs.
Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed.
