The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE SMT. JUSTICE T.MEENA KUMARI and THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT APPEAL No. 963 of 2009 JUDGMENT: (Per Hon’ble Smt. Justice T. Meena Kumari) This writ appeal is directed against the order of the learned single Judge in W.P. No. 12176 of 2009, dated 23.6.2009. The appellant, who is the unsuccessful writ petitioner in the said Writ petition, sought a declaration that the action of the respondents in seeking to evict him from Quarter No. A/118, NSR SS Project Colony(Sunnipeta), without following the due process of law is illegal and arbitrary. It is the case of the appellant that he has been executing contracts at Srisailam dam. He also claims to be in occupation of the aforementioned quarter for the past ten years on payment of rents as fixed by the respondent- authorities. While so, the third respondent issued a letter dated 6.3.2009 requesting the Station House Officer, II Town Police Station, Srisailam to take necessary steps for evicting the unauthorized occupants of the Government quarters on the ground that they are required to be allotted to the people below the poverty line. Feeling aggrieved, the appellant filed the aforementioned writ petition before the learned single Judge. The learned single judge while taking into account the fact that the appellant failed to produce any evidence to show that he has been in occupation of the quarter in question for the past ten years and also the fact that the appellant failed to produce any evidence to show that he has been paying any rents, dismissed the said writ petition by the impugned order, In view of the fact that the appellant has failed to prove that he has been validly permitted by the respondent-authorities to occupy the quarter in question, the appellant has no legal right to be in occupation of the same. Under the circumstances, we do not find any reason to interfere with the order of the learned single judge. The writ appeal fails and it is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ___________________ T.MEENA KUMARI,J Date: 28th July, 2009 _________________ SANJAY KUMAR,J pnb
