HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.7281 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner states that the 3rd respondent established a Carpentry Workshop in his immediate neighbourhood at Kovvur Nagar, Anantapur Town, without obtaining the permission and causing sound and air pollution. He submitted a representation, dated 24-01- 2001, to the 1st respondent with a request to take action. His grievance is that no action has been taken thereon. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. 3. Any commercial or industrial activity can take place within the limits of Municipal Corporation only under licence or permit granted by the Municipal Corporation. In case, the 3rd respondent is undertaking any activity, which warrants licence and he did not obtain it, the 1st respondent is under obligation to take necessary steps. This, however, is a matter to verify through the concerned officials. The representation made by the petitioner needs to be examined. 4. Hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider the representation, dated 24-01-2001, submitted by the petitioner and take necessary steps within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If it becomes necessary to take action against the 3rd respondent, the 1st respondent shall issue notice to him before taking further steps. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J March 21, 2011. KTL
