It is the case of the petitioner-association that its members belong to BC-C community and they do not have any houses even though they are working in the slaughter houses for the last 50 years. On their behalf, several public representatives have made requests to allot house sites and one such request was considered by the authorities and on 20-02-2007 the District Collector has directed the Deputy Commissioner, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation to initiate necessary action for granting houses under the Indiramma/JNURRM scheme as per their eligibility. Their grievance is that in spite of the said directions, so far no steps have been initiated by the authorities to allot either house site pattas or to allot houses. When the matter came up for admission on 06-08- 2008, learned standing counsel appearing for Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation sought time to get instructions. Today, the learned standing counsel submitted that the Deputy Commissioner, Kapra Circle, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (G.H.M.C) addressed a letter dated 14-08-2008 to the President of petitioner- association to furnish the list of eligible persons to enable them to sanction houses under Indiramma Scheme, but so far no such list was furnished to them. As and when the petitioner association furnishes the list, after making necessary enquiries, they will grant houses to the eligible persons. In view of the above statement made by the learned standing counsel, the respondents are directed to consider the cases of the members of the petitioner-association after their furnishing the list of eligible persons. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _________________ N.V.RAMANA,J Dt:20-08-2008 Usd To 1 The District Collector, R.R.District, having office at Lakdi ka Pul, Hyderabad. 2 The Commissioner, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, Tank Bund Road, Hyderabad. 3 The Tahsildar, Ghatkesar Mandal, R.R.District. 4 Two CD copies
