THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.17126 OF 2005 DATED 11TH APRIL, 2011 BETWEEN M.R.K.Srinivas Rao and others. …Petitioners and District Collector (Panchayat Raj), Ranga Reddy District at Hyderabad and others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO.17126 OF 2005 ORDER: The petitioners challenge the action of the District Collector (Panchayat Raj), Ranga Reddy District, in his proceedings dated 18.07.2005, cancelling the layouts sanctioned in Survey Nos.116/A and 121 of Boduppal Village and Survey Nos.27, 28, 31 to 40 of Miyaput Village, Boduppal Gram Panchayat, Ghatkesar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District. This Court, by separate interim orders dated 10.08.2005, granted stay of the impugned proceedings dated 18.07.2005 and also directed to the second respondent Gram Panchayat to consider the cases of the petitioners, whose building applications were pending, as per Rule 13 of the relevant Rules. It is now brought to my notice that Writ Petition No.737 of 2006, filed by others who had plots in the sanctioned layouts in the subject lands, which were cancelled by the District Collector (Panchayat Raj), Ranga Reddy District, under the very same proceedings dated 18.07.2005, was disposed of this Court by order dated 15.12.2010. A copy of the said order is placed on record and demonstrates that this Court, being of the opinion that the petitioners were not afforded proper opportunity to put forth their case thereby resulting in the violation of the principles, set aside the impugned order leaving it open to the District Collector (Panchayat Raj), Ranga Reddy District, to issue a fresh show cause notice with sufficient details so as to enable the petitioners therein to offer their explanation and proceed further in the matter in accordance with law. As the proceedings of the District Collector (Panchayat Raj), Ranga Reddy District, dated 18.07.2005 have already been invalidated by this Court in its Judgment dated 15.12.2010 in Writ Petition No.737 of 2006, no further adjudication is called for in this writ petition. As the petitioners herein are similarly situated to those in the above writ petition, the District Collector (Panchayat Raj), Ranga Reddy District, must necessarily give them an opportunity of hearing by issuing a fresh show cause notice with complete details and only after considering their explanation, take action in the matter in accordance with law. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of with the above direction. No order as to costs. ____________________ SANJAY KUMAR, J. 11TH APRIL, 2011. VGSR/PGS
