ORDER
Heard both sides.
2. The writ petitioner is a resident of Kombai Village. He wants a check dam to be constructed in the petition mentioned survey number. He has already given representation in this regard. Since it was not acted upon, this writ petition came to be filed.
3. These are matters that have financial implications. This Court cannot issue any positive direction as such. The petitioner will have to necessarily move the local legislator / department concerned. The writ court cannot interfere in such matters. Granting such liberty to the petitioner to pursue other remedies, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs.
