THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.1675 of 2011 ORDER: This Contempt Case is filed alleging violation of the directions issued by this Court in order, dated 04.10.2010 passed in Writ Petition No.24706 of 2008. 19 individuals claiming to be the residents of Saraswathi Colony in Ward No.13 of Uppal filed the Writ Petition. It is the case of the petitioners that in their locality, a commercial complex known as ‘Jayachandra Complex’ has come up and in front of the said Complex, there is haphazard parking of the vehicles and it is causing inconvenience to the residents of the locality. It is their grievance that in spite of their complaints, no steps have been taken. In view of the stand of the respondents in the counter-affidavit filed by them, this Court disposed of the Writ Petition with the direction to the respondents to take all possible steps for removal of congestion in front of the Complex and unauthorized constructions, if any. In this Contempt Case, it is the grievance of the petitioners that in spite of such a direction, certain structures are in existence and despite their got issuing notice, no further steps have been taken by the respondents and the same amounts to willful violation of the directions issued by this Court. By the impugned order, this Court has not issued any specific direction to the respondents for removal of any particular structure or to take any specific step for removal of congestion. Merely, when it is stated that wrong parking was being made in front of the Complex, this Court directed the respondents for taking all possible steps for removal of congestion in front of the Complex. In the counter-affidavit filed by them, the respondents stated that the Complex came up 15 years back when Uppal municipality was governed by the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Municipalities Act, 1965. In the absence of any specific direction for removal of alleged congestion, it cannot be said that there is willful and deliberate violation on the part of the respondents, to entertain this Contempt Case. This Contempt Case is devoid of merit and it is accordingly dismissed, at the stage of admission. However, this will not preclude the petitioners from moving the authorities concerned for taking such steps as available under the provisions of Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 16th DECEMBER, 2011. kvni
