THE HON’BLE Dr. JUSTICE G. YETHIRAJULU W.P.No. 19767 of 2002 Dated:18-01-2008 Between:- P. Anwar Basha ..Petitioner And The A.P. State Wakf Board, Rep., by its Chief Executive Officer, Haj House Complex, Opposite to Public Gardens, Nampalli, Hyderabad. ..Respondent. THE HON’BLE Dr. JUSTICE G. YETHIRAJULU W.P.No. 19767 of 2002 : ORAL O R D E R: This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner seeking to declare the Memo dated 16-07-2002 issued by the respondent as illegal, arbitrary and without application of mind. The petitioner made an application to the respondent requesting to appoint him as Muthawalli by contending that he was the erstwhile Secretary of the Managing Committee of the subject Wakf. The respondent through proceedings dated 16-07-2002 informed the petitioner that as per the Survey Commissioner’s Report, the rule of succession for office of the Muthawalli is hereditary and his request for sanction of Towliath is hereby rejected. Being aggrieved by the same, the petitioner approached this Court seeking the relief as mentioned above. Learned counsel for the respondent submitted that the son of the erstwhile Muthawalli is appointed as Muthawalli after the demise of his father and as the office of Muthawalli is hereditary, the respondent has rightly appointed the son of erstwhile Muthawalli as Muthawalli of the subject Wakf. The petitioner is no way concerned with the erstwhile Muthawalli and is not entitled to be appointed as Muthawalli simply because he worked as Joint Secretary of the Managing Committee of the subject Wakf. If there is any grievance for the petitioner, he has to approach the Wakf Tribunal against the order of the respondent and no relief can be granted in this writ petition when there is an alternative remedy available before the Wakf Tribunal. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. _____________________ Dr.G. YETHIRAJULU, J Dated: 18-01-2008. Pvks/*
