Yards in Plot No.6-A in Sy.No.129/44, situated at Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, and it applied for regularization of the plot by enclosing relevant documents like title deeds, ULC Clearance certificate, etc. under regularization scheme as proposed by the Government in its Orders issued in G.O.Ms.No.902, MA, dated 31.12.2007 and G.O.Ms.No.113, MA, dated 31.01.2008, but the 3rd respondent-Commissioner & Special Officer, vide his letter dated 27.06.2009, without giving any notice or an opportunity of hearing, rejected its application with an endorsement that the site under reference is portion of 40’ wide common road as per family partition layout plan. Then, the petitioner filed objections on 03.07.2009 before the 2nd respondent, and later, made an application dated 11.11.2009 requesting the 2nd respondent to treat his objections dated 03.07.2009 as an appeal under Clause 15(1)1 of G.O. Ms.No.902, dated 31.12.2007. Now, it is the grievance of the petitioner that the 2nd respondent has neither considered its objections nor treated the same as an appeal under Clause 15(1)1 of G.O. Ms.No.902, dated 31.12.2007. Hence, the petitioner has filed the present writ petition seeking appropriate directions. The learned Government Pleader for Municipal Administration appearing for the 1st respondent has produced a copy of the Order issued by the 1st respondent-Government in G.O.Ms.No. 02, dated 02.01.2008, wherein it is clearly mentioned that the appellate authority is constituted under A.P. Regulation and Penalization of Unauthorizedly Constructed Buildings and Buildings Constructed in Deviation of Sanctioned Plan Rules, 2007 and A.P. Regulation of Unapproved and Illegal Layouts, 2007, and the learned Government Pleader submitted that the petitioner may file a regular appeal before such appellate authority for redressal of its grievance. Heard the learned counsel for both the parties and perused the material placed on record. In view of the submission made by the learned Government Pleader for Municipal Administration that the petitioner has an effective alternative remedy of appeal before the appellate authority concerned under statutory rules, and having regard to the fact that the petitioner has already filed objections on 03.07.2009, and the same are pending consideration before the 2nd respondent, this Court, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: “The appellate authority, who is constituted under A.P. Regulation and Penalization of Unauthorizedly Constructed Buildings and Buildings Constructed in Deviation of Sanctioned Plan Rules, 2007 and A.P. Regulation of Unapproved and Illegal Layouts, 2007, as per the orders issued by the Government in G.O.Ms.No.02, dated 02.01.2008 is directed to consider the objections dated 03.07.2009 said to have been filed by the petitioner, and treat the same as an appeal, and pass appropriate orders thereon, in accordance with law, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.” With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________ C.V. RAMULU, J 24th February, 2010 bcj
