3. It is stated that the petitioners are the members of Sri Mallikarjuna Journalist Colony Welfare Society' They have made an application for allotment of the land for the benefit and welfare of the members of the Society. It is also stated that all the members of the Society are working as journalists/reporters arrd their t, I 1l I ! i I I I 2 contribution to the Society is to protect the democratical rights of the citizens. Keeping in view the said obj,ect, the State has allotted an extent of 6O Sq.yards each, in Sy.No.9O situated at Mumuganoor, Ranga Reddy District and with their hard earrLings, they hav,3 r:onstructed houses and have been residing therein.

6. It is settled law that the writ petitions filed against the show-cause notices are not maintainable, more particularly when the statutory authority exercise their powers under the provisions of the Statute. 7 .
