THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Contempt Case No.496 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner filed W.P.No.27980 of 2009 complaining that the bunk established by him in the year 1977 opposite to Mahavir Hotel is sought to be removed without any notice. The writ petition was disposed of on 22.12.2009 directing that the respondents shall issue notice to the petitioner before the bunk is removed. This contempt case is filed alleging that the respondents have removed the bunk on 08.03.2010 in contravention of the orders of this Court. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The 1st respondent also appeared. The petitioner does not claim any ownership over the land, on which the bunk was installed. Admittedly, it was a road margin. The respondents state that the removal of bunk became necessary in view of an important work undertaken for laying a big drainage pipeline. The record placed before this Court discloses that notice was sought to be served on 06.03.2010 and when the petitioner refused to receive the same, it was pasted on the bunk itself. Though the petitioner denies the same, the right of the Corporation to remove the encroachments to ease the traffic congestion cannot be denied. On behalf of the Corporation, it is stated that alternative location would be provided to the petitioner. Therefore, the contempt case is closed. The respondents shall endeavour to provide alternative location to the petitioner, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 26.04.2010 JSU THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Contempt Case No.496 of 2010 Date: 26.04.2010 JSU
