THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.15572 of 2010 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioners seek a mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in not allotting the house-site pattas in their favour, as illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the petitioners that though they have submitted applications for membership in I.L.T.D. Company Staff Cooperative Industrial House Construction Society Limited (for short ‘the society’), they were not given any membership. A detailed counter-affidavit is filed by respondent No.4. In the counter-affidavit filed on behalf of the President of the Society, it is stated that at no point of time, applications were submitted to the society by the petitioners seeking membership. It is also stated that the society records did not disclose any receipt of amount towards the membership of the petitioners during the period from 1999 to 2010. Even according to the petitioners, they have not become the members of the society. Therefore, even before becoming the members of the society, they cannot seek the relief of issuing directions to the respondents for granting them house-site pattas. It is to be noticed that the society has not even been made as a party to the writ petition and the President of the society has been made as a party. In that view of the matter and in view of denial of filing applications by the petitioners before the society for their membership as averred in the counter-affidavit filed by the President of the society, no direction can be given to the respondents for allotment of house- sites to the petitioners. The writ petition is accordingly, dismissed. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 21st JULY, 2010. kvni
