This Writ Petition is filed under Article 226 of Constitution of India seeking the following relief:

"...pleased to issue a writ, order or orders more particularly one in the nature of writ of Mandamus to declare the proceedings of the 5th Respondent Sub-Divisional Police Officer, Paloncha who videC.No.184/SDPO/PVC/2021, dt. 28/06/2021 in granting permission to 6th Respondent Station House Officer, Paloncha Town Police Station, to open Rowdy Sheet against the Petitioner herein as per A.P. Police Standing Order No.601-A (APPM/TSPM Order 601A) as being arbitrary, illegal without any application of mind as being violative of the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India and this Hon'ble Court concerning APPM/TSPM 601-A and violative of Fundamental Rights of the Petitioner under Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution of India and therefore quash the same in the interest of justice and pass......"

3.2. Learned counsel points out that none of the cases registered against the petitioner pertain to disturbance of public peace. In fact, out of six crimes, the police themselves filed final reports classifying the allegations as "false." Thus, the very basis for opening the rowdy sheet, much less its continuance, is legally unsustainable. He further submits that although this Court, by order dated 17.11.2021, suspended the operation of the rowdy sheet dated 28.06.2021 and directed the petitioner to appear before the Station House Officer, Paloncha Town Police Station on every 2nd and 4th Sunday between 10:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., the petitioner has fully complied with these interim directions. Since the rowdy sheet itself lacks legal foundation, he prays that the same be quashed.
