IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SRI ANIL R. DAVE AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT APPEAL NO.1319 OF 2009 Dt.16.11.2009 Between: Kazi Mohammed Najamuddin Hussain … Appellant And Government of Andhra Pradesh Minorities & Welfare Department Rep. by its Principal Secretary Secretariat, Hyderabad and others … Respondents Counsel for the Appellant: Abhinand Kumar Shavili Counsel for Respondent No.1: G.P. for Social Welfare Counsel for Respondent No.2: Sri M.A.K. Mukheed Counsel for Respondent No.3: Sri B. Vijayasen Reddy THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SRI ANIL R. DAVE AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT APPEAL NO.1319 OF 2009 JUDGMENT: (per the Hon’ble the Chief Justice Sri Anil R. Dave) Being aggrieved by an order dt.8.4.2009 passed in Writ Petition No.28126 of 2007, this appeal has been filed by the original petitioner, who had challenged the appointment of respondent No.3 as Khazi of Secunderabad, in the aforestated writ petition. After hearing the concerned Advocates and looking to the legal position, the learned Single Judge was satisfied that appointment of respondent No.3 as Khazi was rightly made, upon recommendation of persons belonging to Muslim community, as he was otherwise duly qualified to be appointed. We do not find any illegality in the impugned order and therefore the appeal is dismissed with no order as to costs. As a sequel to dismissal of the appeal, W.A.M.P. No.2774 of 2009 filed by the appellant to expedite the hearing of the appeal is dismissed as infructuous. It appears that the appellant is aggrieved because he is also performing the duties as Khazi and, according to him, there might be some problem as to who has to perform the duties as Khazi with regard to overlapping area. It would therefore be open to the appellant to make a representation to respondent No.1 – Government, so that, if thought it proper, the Government may demarcate a separate area for the appellant as well as respondent No.3. ______________ ANIL R.
