THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No. 17372 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioner is the owner of premises bearing No.12-8- 280/1/4, Alugadda Bavi, Mettuguda, Sucunderabad. He purchased the same through registered sale deed dated 30-03-2005. It appears that the road opposite to the house of the petitioner is a bit wide. It is stated that a platform is constructed opposite to the house of the petitioner, for the purpose of conducting the community functions, such as, Ganesh Festival. The grievance of the petitioner is that the platform is being used for illegal activities by unsocial elements, including respondents 2 to 6 herein, and though he has made representations to the authorities of the Police Department and Municipal Corporation, no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned counsel for the respondents. It is not a case where any part of the land, or premises of the petitioner has been encroached, either by the Municipal Corporation, or by third parties. Even the road that runs in front of the house of the petitioner is intact. An open place existing at a distance is utilized for common functions. The petitioner is justified in expecting that no unsocial activity must take place, either on the structure, or anywhere in the vicinity. At the same time, he has no right to insist on removal of the structure. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that, in case any unsocial, or untoward activity takes place in and around the house of the petitioner, it shall be open to him to file a complaint before the Police Station concerned, which, in turn, shall take action in accordance with law. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.30-04-2010. KO
