IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) TUESDAY, THE TWENTY FOURTH DAY OF AUGUST TWO THOUSAND AND TEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.21085 of 2010 BETWEEN Sollu Babu and another. ... PETITIONER AND District Collector, Karimnagar District and 16 others. ...RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner: MR. PARSA ANANTHA NAGESWAR RAO Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following order: ORDER: In this writ petition the petitioners seek directions by way of Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents 1, 3 and 4 in allotting shops in the shopping complex constructed on the road leading from Huzurabad to Saidapur near IB Guest House at Huzurabad in favour of respondents 5 to 17, as illegal and arbitrary. 2. Petitioners claim that they are petty vendors earning they livelihood by running small shops in telas/buddies on the road leading from Huzurabad to Saidapur near IB guest house at Huzurabad. For the purpose of rehabilitation of such persons, a portion of the land near IB guest house was taken over for construction of shops for allotment to the petitioners and other similarly situated persons. It is the case of the petitioners that though they are eligible persons, as they are displaced persons, without examining their claim there was an allotment made in favour of unofficial respondents 5 to 17. It is also stated in the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition that they filed a representation before the Minister for Education and copies were also addressed to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Karimnagar and Mandal Revenue Officer, Huzurabad in the month of July 2010 but no action has been taken. 3. Petitioners rely on a list of beneficiaries prepared by the Tahsildar, Huzurabad. The statement filed by the petitioners is merely a proposal sent by the Tahsildar, Huzurabad for allotment of shops. No material is placed by the petitioners before this Court showing the allotment of shops in favour of unofficial respondents herein. In the absence of any allotment it cannot be said that the unofficial respondents are already allotted shops. In the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition it is stated that the unofficial respondents are not eligible for allotment on the ground that they are having their own business at different places and some of the unofficial respondents are employees of Government service etc. 4. As much as no allotment is made, the statement placed by the petitioners is only a proposal prepared by the Tahsildar and as it is stated that the petitioners have already made a representation before the Tahsildar, Huzurabad, I deem it appropriate to permit the petitioners to make a further fresh representation before the fourth respondent stating their objections for allotment of shops in favour of respondents 5 to 17 within a period of two (2) weeks from today. If any such objections are filed, the third respondent shall consider the same before finalization of proposals sent by the Tahsildar, Huzurabad for allotment of shops constructed near IB guest house on the road leading from Huzurabad to Saidapur. Unless such objections are considered no further steps shall be taken for allotment in favour of any party. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. __________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J August 24, 2010 Note: Furnish C.C. of the order by 27.08.2010 (B/o) DSK
