This writ petition is filed challenging the notice dated 18.02.2019 issued by the 3rd respondent. 3.

Petitioners assert that they are owners and possessors of lands in Sy.Nos.46, 29, 51/2, 52/1, 52/10 and 52/3 situated at Ramanthapur, Uppal, Ranga Reddy District and they have constructed kacha houses therein. While so, respondents 4 and 5 have filed W.P.No.4716 of 2018 challenging the action of the 3rd respondent in not taking action against the illegal and unauthorized constructions made in the said survey numbers. In the said writ petition, this Court, by order dated 09.02.2018, directed respondents 2 and 3 therein to visit the said survey numbers, take necessary steps and submit written instructions with regard to the unauthorized constructions, particularly, blocking the source of irrevocable water to the field of the petitioners therein i.e., respondents 4 and 5. As the said order has not been complied with, respondents 4 and 5 filed contempt case. Petitioners further assert that on account of the orders of this Court in W.P.No.4716 of 2018 and also filing of the contempt case, the 3rd respondent, without taking appropriate steps,

CKR, J W.P.No.4082 of 2019 issued the impugned notice to the petitioners for removal of the constructions.

4.

Learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that pursuant to the impugned notice, the petitioners have filed objections on 25.02.2019 before the 3rd respondent, however, apprehending that the respondents may not consider their objections on account of the orders of this Court in W.P.No.4716 of 2018, petitioners field the present writ petition.

5.

Having regard to the submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners that the petitioners have submitted their objections on 25.02.2019 in response to the impugned notice, the respondents are directed to consider the said objections before passing any orders, particularly, keeping in view the direction issued by this Court in W.P.No.4716 of 2018 dated 09.02.2018, and if any classification is to be done, respondents shall give notice to the petitioner as well as respondents 4 and 5. Till such exercise is completed, no coercive steps shall be taken against the petitioners. Further, the petitioners in the contempt case may place the order of this Court to consider the contempt proceedings. Learned Standing Counsel shall inform the 3rd respondent with respect to the orders of this Court. 6.

With the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs.

7.

Miscellaneous applications, if any pending in this writ petition, shall also stand closed. No costs.
