V.V.Naidu, v. State Of Telangana

HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE A.RAJASHEKER REDDY WRIT PETITON No.21740 of 2017 ORDER:

This writ petition is filed against the order dated 30-05-2017 passed by the 2nd respondent, wherein the application filed by the petitioner for regularization is rejected on the ground that extent of land is more than one acre.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is no such restriction that the plots above one acre should not be regularized.

Though time was sought by the learned Standing Counsel for the 2nd respondent, but he could not say under which provision of the scheme, the impugned order could be justified. However, he submits that the application was not made by the petitioner, but by some other person.

Now it is to be seen that whether impugned order is justified. There is no prohibition of regularization of land above one acre in the scheme as per G.O.Ms.No.151, dated 02-11-2015 issued by Municipal Administration and Urban Development (M1) Department. Learned Standing Counsel for the 2nd respondent could not justify the impugned order showing that any prohibition for

regularization of above one acre under G.O.Ms.No.151, dated 02-11-2015 or any other rules.

In view of the same, the impugned order is set aside. The respondent-authorities are directed to consider the application of the petitioner as per rules in G.O.Ms.No.151, dated 02-11-2015 or any other subsequent rules applicable to the present case. The said exercise shall be done within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. As a sequel to the disposal of this petition, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed. _________________________ A.RAJASHEKER REDDY,J 05-07-2017 Nvl
