HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.8834 of 2010 ORDER: Heard Sri M.Karunasagar, Learned Counsel for the petitioner and Smt. Kalpana Ekbote, Learned Standing Counsel for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation. At their request the Writ Petition is being disposed of at the stage of admission. The petitioner’s grievance, in this Writ Petition, is with regards the action of the respondents in attempting to demolish his house bearing D.No.1-23, Nallagandla Village, Serilingampally Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, on 17.4.2010. The petitioner would contend that he had constructed a small tiled house 100 sq. yards about five years ago; since G.O.Ms.No.423, MA & UD Department, dated 31.7.1998 exempts the requirement of obtaining permission for construction made within an extent of 100 sq. yards, permission was not required to be obtained; and, therefore, the construction made in the said premises cannot be said to be unauthorized. Smt. Kalpana Ekbote, Learned Standing Counsel for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, on instructions, would submit that G.O.Ms.No.423, dated 31.7.1998 has no application since the building constructed by the petitioner does not satisfy the condition prescribed therein. Learned Standing Counsel would submit that, in any view of the matter, the respondent – Corporation would put the petitioner on notice under Section 452 of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955 (for short ‘the Act’); give him an opportunity of being heard and, if need be, take action, thereafter, by issuing notice under Section 636 of the Act. In view of the submissions made by the Learned Standing Counsel and, in as much as the petitioner would be entitled to raise all the contentions, which he has been raised in this Writ Petition on a notice being issued to him under Section 452 of the Act, I see no reason to examine the matter any further. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of directing respondents 1 and 2 not to demolish the house in question except in accordance with the procedure prescribed under the provisions of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955, the rules and the building be-laws made thereunder. No order as to costs. ____________ 22.4.2010 usd/asp
