THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO.19133 OF 2006 ORDER: The petitioners 26 in number filed this writ petition aggrieved by the order dated 22-4-2006 passed by the Competent Authority, North & Western Divisions, A.P. Housing Board, Hyderabad directing eviction of the petitioners in exercise of powers conferred under the provisions of the A.P. Housing Board Act, 1966. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, the learned Standing Counsel for A.P. Housing Board appearing for the 1st and 2nd respondents and the learned Government Pleader for Housing Department appearing for the 3rd respondent. It is brought to my notice that challenging the very same order dated 22-4-2006 some of the aggrieved persons filed W.P.No.14375 of 2006 and this Court having regard to the fact that against the said order an alternative remedy of appeal is available, disposed of the writ petition by order dated 14-7-2006 granting liberty to the petitioners therein to approach the Appellate Court and that the respondents would maintain status quo for a period of four weeks making it clear that the observations, if any, made in the said order would not come in the way of the Appellate Court in considering the question of limitation. Since the petitioners herein also stand on the same footing and are aggrieved by the very same order of eviction, dated 22-4- 2006, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition in terms of the order in W.P.No.14375 of 2006. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of granting liberty to the petitioners to approach the appellate Court and seek appropriate orders. Meanwhile, Status quo obtaining as on today as to the nature and possession of the property in question shall be maintained for a period of four weeks. Accordingly, Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. _______________ G. ROHINI, J. Dt. 15-9-2006 bcj
