THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L.NAGESWARA RAO C.M.S.A.NO.148 OF 2005 JUDGMENT:- The Civil Miscellaneous Second Appeal is filed against the order dated.29-04-2005 of the Chief Judge, City Small Causes Court, Hyderabad in M.A.No.316 of 2003. A notice was issued on 18-06-2003 for demolition of the premises in question by exercising the power under Section 456 of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporations Act,1955 ( for short “the Act”) to the appellant and 10 others, who are tenants. The tenants have filed a W.P.15523 of 2002 and this Court gave a direction to the Wakf Board and also to the Municipal authorities not to demolish the premises without giving any notice. Thereafter, notice was given and after considering the material, the order of demolition was found to be necessary and aggrieved by the said order, the Appeal was filed before the Chief Judge. In that Appeal, a Commissioner was appointed and Commissioner has noted down the physical features and his opinion also supports the need for demolition. The lower court has also considered the technical opinion of the Engineers and also the photographs and confirmed the order holding that the building may collapse at any point of time. The learned counsel for the appellant tried to contend that no proper opportunity was given before issuing the notice for demolition. This contention is not tenable in view of the fact that in the earlier writ proceedings, a direction was given to the respondents for giving necessary opportunity and consequently the opportunity was given. Therefore, the opinion arrived at by the learned Chief Judge and the notice of demolition issued by the Corporation cannot be faulted. Further more, there is no provision for Second Appeal against the order passed under Section 456 of the Act. In this connection, it is useful to refer to a decision reported in S.Trimurthy Vs. Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad and others([1]) whereunder it was held that no Second Appeal lies as against the order of the Chief Judge in the orders of demolition. Therefore, there are no merits in the appeal and the appeal is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the Civil Miscellaneous Second Appeal is dismissed. No costs. _______________________ N.R.L.
