AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO.10912 OF 2010 ORDER: The petitioner – degree college is apprehensive that respondent No.3 – college would shift to a place closer to the petitioner leading to unhealthy competition. The learned counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner has already filed objections for the proposed shifting of the third respondent vide their representation dated 23.4.2010 to respondent No.1, but the same has not been considered. It is also stated that similar objections are also filed by the petitioner before respondent No.2 opposing the said shifting on the ground that it is contrary to the Rules framed under the A.P. Education Act, 1982, under Chapter-VI, dealing with the aspect of educational institutions, their administration and control. The learned Government Pleader for Higher Education takes notice on behalf of respondent No.1 and submits that the petitioner’s representations would be considered. In view of the above, the grievance of the petitioner would be redressed, if its objections are considered by respondent No.1 before taking any decision on the request of the respondent No.3. The Writ Petition is therefore disposed of directing respondent No.1 to consider and take a reasoned decision in accordance with law so far as request of third respondent for shifting of the college is concerned. ______________________ VILAS V.
