THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.7438 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioner is an immediate neighbour of the premises owned by the 4th respondent at Prenderghast Road, Secunderabad. His grievance is mostly about the construction of ground plus three floors by the 4th respondent and installation of generator and heavy split air conditioners facing his building. Hence, this writ petition is filed alleging that the Municipal Corporation herein did not take any steps against the violations committed by the 4th respondent. The 4th respondent filed a counter affidavit stating that the construction was made by her in lieu of surrender of 71.11 square yards of land for widening of the road. It is stated that when the petitioner objected for the installation of air conditioners, they have been shifted to the terrace. While issuing Notice Before Admission, this Court called for a report from the Corporation. The report has since been submitted. It reflects virtually the facts pleaded by the 4th respondent. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Standing Counsel for respondents 1 to 3 and the learned counsel for the respondent No.4. Normally a construction has to be made only after obtaining permission from the Municipal Corporation. However, the Corporation itself has granted certain facilities to the persons who were affected in widening of the road. The affected portion of the land is taken over by the Municipal Corporation free of cost and in lieu thereof, the owner of the land is granted certain concessions. Obviously on account of the fact that the substantial extent viz., 71.11 square yards of land in a very important locality owned by the 4th respondent was taken over by the Corporation, she made construction of ground plus three floors. The area, which is hitherto residential, is said to have been converted into commercial. Even now, the Corporation is not clear as to the nature of violations, if any, on the part of the 4th respondent, though notices are said to have been given to her. The principal grievance of the petitioner as regards the installation of air conditioners and generator has since been redressed, on account of shifting of the same. The 4th respondent is said to have submitted an application for regularization of the violations. In that view of the matter, no further orders are necessary. Therefore the writ petition is closed. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 09.11.2009 JSU THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.7438 of 2008 Date: 09.11.2009 JSU
