THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18511 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner claims to have constructed a house at Korutla over an area of 97.50 square yards abutting National Highway 16. It is stated that though an application was submitted on 09.02.2007 seeking permission, no steps were taken thereon and ultimately, the construction was made. The petitioner complains that the Korutla Municipality, 3rd respondent herein demolished the structure on 20.07.2007 by using poclainers. By furnishing the details of expenditure incurred for the construction, the petitioner claims damages of Rs.20,00,000/-. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. Admittedly, the petitioner did not have any permission to construct. The questions as to whether the application submitted by the petitioner has given raise to any deemed permission and whether the respondents have demolished building at all, need to be decided only after recording evidence that may be adduced by both the parties. Such disputed questions of fact cannot be adjudicated in a writ petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Therefore, the writ petition is dismissed, leaving it open to the petitioner to pursue the remedies by filing a suit. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 11.11.2009 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18511 of 2009 Date: 11.11.2009 JSU
