HON'BLE MR JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA W. P. No. 11884 of 2009 TUESDAY THE 11th DAY OF AUGUST, 2009 O R D E R:- The petitioners claim to be the absolute owners and possessors of the land in an extent of Ac.2.00 cents in Sy.No.195/2A situated behind swimming pool, Mubaraknagar, Kurnool. While so, the City Planner, Kurnool Municipal Corporation issued a Land Use Certificate, dated 29.4.2008 indicating that the land in question is earmarked for residential use. Then, the petitioners submitted a Layout Application dated 9.7.2008 along with site plan to the respondent-Corporation seeking approval of the layout, but no approval has been granted. Now, it is their grievance that even though the respondent-corporation is under obligation to consider their application for approval of the layout as per Layout Rules, 1965 within thirty days, they have not considered their application and passed any orders thereon. Hence, the present writ petition is filed seeking appropriate directions. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for Kurnool Municipal Corporation appearing for the respondents and perused the material placed on record. This Court, on 25.6.2009, while ordering Notice Before Admission, passed interim order directing the respondents to consider the petitioners’ application and pass appropriate orders thereon. On 17.7.2009, when the matter was taken up, the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-corporation submitted that by Proceedings dated 15.04.2009, the petitioner was directed to furnish certain information for considering his request for regularization of layout, and produced a copy thereof. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that in pursuance of the Endorsement, the petitioners, on 13.7.2009, submitted a detailed explanation and relevant documents have already been furnished to respondent-Corporation. Having regard to the fact that the petitioners submitted a detailed explanation dated 13.7.2009 to the respondent-Corporation in pursuance of the Endorsement, dated 15.4.2009, and the same having not been disputed by the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-Corporation, this Court is inclined to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: “The respondent-Corporation is directed to consider the application dated 09.07.2008 said to have been filed by the petitioners, and pass appropriate orders thereon, in accordance with law, expeditiously, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.” Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ______________ N.V.RAMANA, J 11th August, 2008 bcj
