Petitioner AND The Deputy Transport Commissioner and Secretary, Regional Transport Authority, Attapur, Ranga Reddy District and another. .....Respondents Counsel for the Petitioner: Mr.Rajanikanth Jwala Counsel for the respondents: AGP for Transport The Court made the following: Order: This Writ Petition is filed for a Mandamus to declare the seizure and continued detention of the petitioner’s JCB excavator loader, bearing R.No.GA-01-C-2537, under vehicle check report No.2503125, dated 26-03-2011, by respondent No.2, as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioner sought for a consequential direction to the respondents to forthwith release the seized JCB. Even though, in the Writ Petition, the petitioner has taken the plea that it is not liable to pay life tax in the State of Andhra Pradesh, today at the hearing, Sri Rajanikanth Jwala, learned Counsel for the petitioner, submitted that the petitioner is willing to pay the life tax. The learned Assistant Government Pleader for Transport, representing the respondents, submitted that, since the aforesaid JCB was seized mainly on the ground that life tax was not paid, the respondents shall have no objection for release of the same on payment of the life tax by the petitioner. In view of the above, the Writ Petition is disposed of with the direction to the respondents to release the seized JCB to the petitioner subject to its paying the life tax. As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, WPMP.No.35060 of 2011, filed by the petitioner for interim relief, is disposed of as infructuous. ______________________ (C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy, J) 20th October, 2011 Note: Furnish CC in five days.
