C. Ramdas v. The Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Limited

THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A.V.SESHA SAI WRIT PETITION No.12353 of 2018 ORDER:

Heard learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. According to the petitioner, he was allotted Plot No.63, admeasuring 1978 Sq.Mts., at Industrial Park, Chityal, Nalgonda District by the respondent-Corporation and the same was followed by the registered Agreement of Sale, dated 22.09.2006 and the site was entrusted to him. By way of a notice, dated 24.06.2017, the Zonal Manager, Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd., Zonal Office at Yadadri, Hyderabad, asked the petitioner to avail the opportunity for extension of time for establishment of an industry and according to the petitioner, he received the said notice on 30.06.2017 and on 05.07.2017, by way of a letter, he made a request to the Zonal Manager for extension of time to submit proposal.

According to the petitioner, thereafter nothing transpired and on 04.01.2018 he submitted a letter to the Zonal Manager to grant one year time for implementation of the project. Now by way of the Order under challenge, the Zonal Manager cancelled the land allotted to the petitioner. The sum and substance of the case of the petitioner herein is that though the petitioner explained the reasons for delay in the earlier reply dated 05.07.2017 and the letter, dated 04.01.2018, the same were not considered by the respondent-authorities while cancelling the land allotted to him.

A perusal of the order under challenge shows that no reasons were assigned for cancelling the land allotted to the petitioner, except

stating that request for extension of time is not considered. The contents of the above said replies filed by the petitioner were not taken into consideration. On the said ground alone, this Court is of the opinion that the matter requires reconsideration by the respondentauthorities. In view of the above, the Writ Petition is allowed, setting aside the impugned letter, dated 27.03.2018, and the matter is remanded to the 3rd respondent for fresh consideration, strictly in accordance with law, after taking into consideration the above replies/letters filed by the petitioner.

Miscellaneous Petitions pending consideration, if any, in this Writ Petition shall stand closed.
