ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.18031 OF 2011 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the notice dated 20.06.2011 issued by the 1st respondent – Commissioner, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation – under Section 452 of the Hyderabad Municipal Corporations Act, 1955 calling upon the petitioner to show- cause as to why the alleged unauthorised construction of mulgies at Darga Hazrat Sabir Ali Shah situated at Mehdipatnam, Hyderabad, should not be removed as arbitrary and illegal. It is pleaded by the petitioners that in response to the impugned notice, a detailed explanation was submitted by them on 23.06.2011 through their counsel. Alleging that without considering the said explanation, the respondents are attempting to demolish the structures in question, the present writ petition is filed. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri R. Radhakrishna Reddy, the learned Standing Counsel appearing for Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation. Having regard to the fact that the petitioners have already submitted the explanation to the impugned show-cause notice dated 20.06.2011 and no final order has been passed thereupon so far, there cannot be demolition of the structures in question at this stage. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to consider the explanation submitted by the petitioners to the impugned show-cause notice and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. Till such time, there shall not be demolition of the structures in question. It is also made clear that the petitioners shall not proceed with any constructions in the meanwhile. Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _____________ G. ROHINI, J. 29.06.2011 I s L THE HONOURABLE MS. JUSTICE G.
