THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.386 of 2008 ORDER: The petitioner is a choultry at Kothapet, Guntur. It is stated that public functions, mostly death ceremonies are performed in the choultry free of cost and that necessary amenities are provided by it. To augment income of the choultry, the petitioner has proposed to construct a shopping complex in the vacant site on the western side. The grievance of the petitioner is that the respondent is proposing to construct a public toilet nearby the open place. It is stated that when the matter was taken to the notice of the Deputy Commissioner, Endowments, he has issued proceeding dated 03.09.2007 stating that the construction of public toilet in front of choultry be stopped forthwith. The petitioner contends that despite such proceedings, steps are being taken to resume construction in the year 2008. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing counsel for the Municipality. It may be true that the Corporation is under obligation to provide amenities to the general public by constructing public toilets etc. However, the place should be chosen in such a way that it does not cause any inconvenience to the owners of the private properties. Particularly, the choultries which render public service. The Deputy Commissioner felt some force in the representation made by the petitioner. It is not known as to why the decision was revised. Hence, the writ petition is allowed and the respondent is directed not to construct any public toilet abutting the premises owned by the petitioner. There shall be no order as to costs.
