THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.13921 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner claims to have purchased a plot admeasuring 125 sq.yards in Survey No.260 of Gaddi Annaram Village, Saroornagar Mandal, Ranga Reddy District, through sale deed, dated 12.03.2001. He made a reference to the litigation in relation to that plot as well as filing of Writ Petition No.15880 of 2002 as regards rejection of the application seeking permission to construct a building. It is stated that a building has since been constructed and in terms of G.O.Ms.No.901, dated 31.12.2007, an application for regularisation thereof was submitted to the respondents. The grievance of the petitioner is that even while the application is pending, the respondents are taking steps to demolish the structure. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. The Government itself introduced the scheme of regularisation of unauthorised structures under Building Penalisation Scheme. The applicant is required to pay atleast a penal amount. The petitioner states that a small structure was raised in an extent of 65 sq.yards. Along with the application, he paid an amount of Rs.7,875/-. The respondents are under obligation to consider the application. The scheme itself provides that the Municipal Corporation shall not take any punitive action against the structures in respect of which the applications are made. Hence, the respondents cannot proceed against the structure made by the petitioner till the application submitted by him is considered. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that the respondents shall not demolish the structure made by the petitioner as long as the application submitted by him on 02.01.2008 for regularisation in terms of the Building Penalisation Scheme, is considered. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J 15th DECEMBER, 2009. kvni
