The petitioners sought for a consequential direction to the respondents to refrain from closing down the said junction. This Court, on earlier occasion i.e., on 07-09-2011, after hearing the case at length, adjourned the same to enable the parties to explore the possibility of filing a joint memo with regard to extension of the divider to a few feet required to ward-off the perceived evil effect of the street opposite the plot allotted to respondent No.2. Today, at the hearing, Smt.G.Jhansi, learned Standing Counsel representing respondent No.1- Vijayawada Municipal Corporation, on instructions, submitted that respondent No.2 has put forth a proposal, on the lines suggested before this Court on 07-09-2011, which was accepted by respondent No.1 and that a memo to that effect was issued on 17-09-2011. The learned Standing Counsel further stated that the effect of the said memo is that the road will not be closed and that the existing road divider will be extended a few yards further and a break in the road divider will be provided at the end of the extended divider to enable the commuters to take ‘U’ turn. The submission of the learned Standing Counsel for respondent No.1- Corporation is placed on record and the Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, interim order, dated 11-04-2011, is vacated and WVMP.No.3002 of 2011 in/& WPMP.No.11936 of 2011 are disposed of. ______________________ (C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy, J) 22nd September, 2011 LUR
