THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI WRIT PETITION No.16922 of 2011 Date: 20.06.2011 Between: P. Satish … Petitioner and State of Andhra Pradesh, Rep.by Commissioner, Endowments Department, Hyderabad and others. … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI WRIT PETITION No.16922 of 2011 ORDER : Heard Sri S. Sridhar, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, as well as the learned Government Pleader for Endowments appearing for the respondents, and with their consent the writ petition is being disposed of at the admission stage. 2. The petitioner is carrying on the business of tent house in the name and style of “Ramesh Tent House” near the 3rd respondent-Sri Kashi Vishwanatha Swamy Temple, Regimental Bazar, Secunderabad. He used to supply the tent house material free of cost to the 3rd respondent-temple, in addition to paying an amount of Rs.30,000/- per annum (wrongly stated as Rs.30,000/- per month) towards rent from out of the rents being collected from the devotees, who celebrate functions or marriages in the said temple. The grievance of the petitioner is that the 3rd respondent- temple is now proposing to conduct auction of the leasehold rights for the supply of tent house material to the temple and its devotees by issuing auction notice dated 6.6.2011. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner has filed the present writ petition. 3. Indisputably, the petitioner is not a tenant, nor is there any agreement entered into between the petitioner and the 3rd respondent-temple with regard to the supply of tent house material. Admittedly, the petitioner is an outsider. Merely because he has been supplying the tent house material free of cost to the temple, he does not acquire any vested right preventing the 3rd respondent-temple to auction the leasehold rights for the supply of the tent house material to the temple. The petitioner also has not placed any discernible evidence to establish his legal right to continue the supply of tent house material to the 3rd respondent- temple. In the absence of any such material, the petitioner is not entitled for the relief sought for. 4. The writ petition is devoid of merits and the same is liable to be dismissed. 5. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. ________________________ JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI 20.06.2011.
