They sought a direction to the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem to send back the suit records in O.S. No. 385 of 2014 to the file of learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam, on the following grounds: (i) Originally plaintiff had filed the aforesaid suit before the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam. (ii) Vide order dated 30-09-2022 in SLP (C) No. 17262 of 2022, the Hon’ble Apex Court directed the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam to dispose of the suit on its own merits, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within six (6) months from the date of receipt of a copy of the said order. Therefore, transfer of proceedings to the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem is in violation of the said order. (iii) No motive or opportunity and no reason is available for such illegal transfer by the trial Court, which is undergoing trial. (iv) Learned Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem, has no power to call for the suit proceedings from the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam to its Court either suo moto or on an application filed by either of the parties as per the procedure laid down under Agency Rules, 1924. (v) They have reasonable apprehension that due to political and other extraneous consideration, continuation of the suit in the Court of learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam is interrupted. The Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem has no authority of law to take away the suit from the file of learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam. (vi) The said withdrawal is contrary to the orders passed by this Court dated 14-03-2023 in Civil Revision Petition No. 470 of 2023. With the aforesaid submissions, they sought a direction to the learned Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem to send back the file to the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam. 7. Sri Vedula Venkata Ramana, learned senior counsel representing M/s. Bhadradwaj Associates, learned counsel appearing for the petitioners/defendants reiterated the aforesaid contentions. 8. Sri S.V. Ramana, learned counsel appearing for the respondent would submit that as per the Agency Rules, the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem has power to transfer the proceedings from learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam to the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem either suo moto or on an application filed by either of the parties to the suit. The Hon’ble Apex Court and this Court directed the trial Court to dispose of the suit, in accordance with law considering the fact that the suit is of the year 2014. But there is no direction to the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem not to transfer or not to dispose of the suit, in accordance with law. Even then, petitioners/defendants have filed the present revision only to drag on the proceedings. 9. In the light of the aforesaid discussion, it is not in dispute that the suit is of the year 2014. Respondent/plaintiff had filed the aforesaid suit on the file of learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam, against the petitioners/defendants seeking perpetual injunction in respect of the suit schedule property i.e. land admeasuring Ac. 2-01 gts. in Sy. No. 26/A, Mandalapalli village of Dammapeta mandal. 10. Several Interlocutory Applications have filed by parties to the suit. Court below passed several orders on the same. Three (3) Civil Revision Petitions were filed by the parties before this Court and the details of the same are narrated supra. Defendants have filed SLP and the Hon’ble Apex Court vide order dated 30-09-2022 directed the Court below to dispose of the suit on its own merits, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within six (6) months from the date of receipt of a copy of the said order. Several FIRs were also registered. Police aid was granted by this Court. The same was confirmed by the Hon’ble Apex court. Even then, according to the plaintiff, defendants are violating the said orders, therefore, plaintiff sought to detain the defendants, in accordance with law. The said Interlocutory Application was also dismissed by the Court below and the same was confirmed by this Court. Thus, there is chequered history to the present suit and the suit is pending since 9 years. 11. In the light of the aforesaid discussion and submissions made by both learned counsel, the only issue to be considered by this Court is as to whether the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem is having power to transfer the proceedings in O.S. No. 385 of 2014 from the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam to his file as per the Agency Rules, 1924. To decide the said issue it is relevant to extract Rule 11 of the Agency Rules, 1924: “Rule 11 of the Andhra Pradesh Agency Rules, 1924 “11. TRANSFER OF SUITS: On the application of any of the parties and after notice to the other parties and after hearing such of them as desired to be heard, or of his own motion without such notice, the Agent to the State Government, may at any stage: (1) Transfer to his court any original suit or appeal pending in any other court within Agency tract included in his district.

But, on an application by any of the parties to the suit, after notice to other parties and after hearing such of them as desired to be heard, the Agent to the State Government may at any stage transfer the suit. Therefore, the following are the requirements to transfer the suit from the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam to the learned Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem: (1) On application of any of the parties to the suit. (2) Notice to the other party. (3) After hearing such of them as desired to be heard. (4) Suo moto without such notice. 13. In the light of the aforesaid allegations made by defendants that the Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem transferred the file suo moto due to the political consideration, this Court directed the Registry to call for record from the learned Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem. Accordingly, record was called for. (4) Suo moto without such notice. 13.

She has made several serious allegations against the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam. 15. Perusal of the record also would reveal that the Anti Corruption Bureau is conducting a regular enquiry vide proceedings No. 8/RE-WKH/2022 dated 12-12-2022 against Sri Ch. Venkateshwarlu, learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam, with regard to certain allegations of misconduct. Notice dated 09-02-2023 was also issued to the said Sri Ch. Venkateswarlu by the Deputy Superintendent of Police, Anti Corruption Bureau, Ranga Reddy. Considering the said allegations made by the plaintiff and other allegations made by several parties, learned Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem, called for the record from the learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam vide proceedings dated 10-04-2023. Instead of transferring the file to learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam vide proceedings dated 11-04-2023, narrating entire facts stating that the plaintiff instead of cooperating with the Court below in disposal of the suit as per the directions of the Hon’ble Apex Court, making allegations against him and therefore, he sought suitable instructions in the matter. Therefore, vide letter dated 11-07-2023, learned Agent to Government/District Collector, Bhadradri-Kothagudem instructed learned Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to Government, Mobile Court at Bhadrachalam to send the file in O.S.

Considering the fact that the suit is of the year 2014, Hon’ble Apex Court and this Court directed the Court below to dispose of the suit on its own merits, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within six (6) months.
