THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.23691 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner claims to be the lessee in respect of part of the premises of IDPL Welfare Association Shopping Complex, Vasanthanagar Colony, Hydernagar, Hyderabad. A rental agreement was entered into between the petitioner on the one hand, and one Sri Vijay Kumar on behalf of IDPL Employees House Building Cooperative Society Limited on 12.02.2008, on the other. The grievance of the petitioner is that the officials of the respondent Corporation are trying to demolish the premises. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent. The petitioner is not the owner of the premises. It has established communication network in the premises after taking them on lease. However, it is brought to the notice of this Court by the learned Standing Counsel for the Corporation that on finding that the premises were constructed encroaching the public road, notices under the relevant provisions of the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955 were issued and the one under Section 636 of the Act was issued to the owner. The petitioner does not appear to be aware of these proceedings. Once it emerges that the premises are constructed without permission and by encroaching public road, this Court does not interfere with the steps taken by the respondent. On the other hand, the respondent is under obligation to ensure that no public road is encroached. The petitioner states that it has installed valuable equipment in the premises and it needs some time to remove the same. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that the petitioner shall remove the equipment installed in the premises by 10.11.2009. The respondent shall defer the demolition till that date. It shall be open to it to proceed further from 10.11.2009 onwards. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:03.11.2009 Note: Issue cc tomorrow. (B/o) kdl
