HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY Writ Petition No.16072 of 2004 Date: November 25, 2010 Between: Guru Devappa, S/o. Venkaiah, R/o.Subhasnagar, Mahabubnagar, And others … Petitioners And The Commissioner, Mahabubnagar Municipality, Mahabubnagar, and Others … Respondents Order: This writ petition is filed seeking Mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in taking steps to construct a building containing additional rooms for use of Govt. Upper Primary School, Station Bazar, Mahabubnagar in the area earmarked for childrens’ park in an extent of 675 sq. yards, situated in Subhasnagar locality, Station Road, Mahabubnagar as illegal and arbitrary. The third respondent-District Educational Officer, Mahabubnagar, has filed counter-affidavit. In the counter- affidavit, while admitting that though initially there was a proposal to construct additional classrooms to Govt. Upper Primary School, Station Bazar, Mahabubnagar, for which a foundation stone was also laid by the local M.L.A, on 29-08-2004, it is stated that the Municipality, Mahabubnagar has constructed a Community Hall in the said land and the same was communicated to the respondents. It is stated that in view of construction of Community Hall in the subject land, no constructions are being made therein for additional classrooms as alleged. As much as it is the categorical averment of the respondents in the counter-affidavit that no constructions are being made for additional classrooms in the subject land pursuant to laying of foundation stone and a Community Hall has already been constructed by the Municipality, Mahabubnagar therein, no further directions need be issued in the writ petition at this stage. The writ petition is therefore closed. ___________________ (R. SUBHASH REDDY, J) November 25, 2010 MRR
