Madhava Reddy, Aged about 58 years, Occ: Household, R/o.3-4-513/A, Barkatpura, Hyderabad … Petitioner And The Municipal Administration Dept., Represented by its Secretary, Secretary, Secretariat Road, Hyderabad, and another … Respondents Order: The short question, which falls for consideration in this writ petition, is whether Town Survey and Land Records certificate is necessary for the purpose of considering the application for grant of building permission under the provisions of the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955. The petitioner, who claims to be the owner and possessor of property bearing No.1-8-540/A/B, situated at Chikkadpally, Hyderabad, admeasuring 194.00 Sq. yards, having purchased the same from its earlier owner, by registered sale deed No.4141/80, is said to have made an application to the respondents to grant necessary permission for construction of building by demolishing the existing structure as it has become unfit for habitation. His grievance is that his application is not being considered on the ground that TSLR certificate is not enclosed along with the plan. The question that arises for consideration herein is no more res integra in view of the judgment of this court in the case of Hyderabad Potteries Pvt. Ltd. V. Collector, Hyderabad District and another[1]. In the said judgment, this court has held that an application, seeking grant of building permission, cannot be rejected merely on the ground that the same is not accompanied by TSLR certificate. ------------------ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J December 17, 2009 MRR [1] 2001 (3) ALD 600
