THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P.NAVEEN RAO WRIT PETITION No.24153 of 2015 ORDER :

The petitioner alleges that open spaces and spaces which were earmarked for parking in the residential apartment building, shops are constructed and unauthorized occupations are made causing lot of inconvenience to the residents of the apartment building and the fire point norms are also not observed, and that there are serious efforts made for regularizing the illegal constructions made and in such an event great prejudice would be caused to the petitioner and other residents. Alleging such illegal constructions being allowed and an attempt is made for regularizing the said illegal constructions, notice was caused on 28.02.2015 to the Commissioner, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, Hyderabad (2nd respondent). Alleging that the said notice is not acted upon and so far no orders are passed and on the contrary there was serious attempt to regularize the illegal constructions, this writ petition is filed.

2.

Having regard to the fact that the notice caused on 28.02.2015 is yet to be acted upon, without expressing any opinion on merits, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the 2nd respondent, to consider the said notice and take appropriate decision as warranted by law. It is made clear that since acting on the notice issued on behalf of the petitioner would likely affect the rights of respondents 4 to 12, therefore, before taking any coercive action against the said respondents, the respondent-Corporation shall cause notice and give due opportunity of hearing and after observing due process of law only, any such action can be taken. Subject to observing the due formalities, the entire exercise shall be completed as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of six (6) weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs.

Miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, in this writ petition shall stand closed.
