Law Associates for Petitioners. Mr R.S. Datar for Respondent Nos.1 and 2. CORAM : D.K.DESHMUKH AND R.G. KETKAR JJ. DATE : 27TH JULY 2011. 2 WP4761/11 P.C. :- 1] Rule, returnable forthwith. Heard finally by consent of the parties. 2] The controversy between the parties is whether the telecommunication towers erected by the petitioners on the building of National Palace Hotel are authorised or unauthorised. The case of the petitioners is that they have submitted application for permission for erection of the towers and that they have complied with all the requirements and they have submitted all necessary documents with the Municipal Council. On the other hand, according to the Municipal Council, all the necessary documents have not been submitted by the petitioners and therefore, the petitioners do not have necessary permission. Therefore, on requisition made by the Municipal Council, the electric supply company has disconnected electric supply to the towers of the petitioners and because of ad-interim order made by us, that power supply has been restored. In this 3 WP4761/11 situation, in our opinion, following order would meet the ends of justice. 3] Within a period of two weeks from today, the petitioner will submit a representation to the Chief Officer of the respondent No.1  Municipal Council giving all details in relation to their application and other documents that they have submitted for permission to erect the three towers which are subject matter of this petition. On that representation being submitted, the Chief Officer shall consider it in accordance with law and make an order on the question whether the petitioners have deemed permission for erection of the towers or erection of the towers is unauthorised. In case the Chief Officer comes to the conclusion that the erection of towers is unauthorised, the Municipal Council shall be free to take action against the towers in accordance with law, but such action shall be taken only after expiry of the period of four weeks from the date of communication of such order to the petitioners. Rule is made absolute with no 4 WP4761/11 order as to costs. Parties to act on the copy of this order duly authenticated by the Sheristedar / Private Secretary of this Court. Certified copy expedited. ( JUSTICE D.K. DESHMUKH ) ( JUSTICE R.G. KETKAR )
