Vijaysen Reddy Counsel for respondents 1&2: Dr. Y. Padmavathi Counsel for respondent No.3: Smt. K. Sesharajyam This Court made the following: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.23481 of 2008 ORDER:- The grievance of the petitioner is that respondent No.3 is running a Beauty Parlour in Flat No.102 of Laxmi Apartments, Kalyan Nagar-III, Hyderabad, in violation of the provisions of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955. The petitioner pleaded that while all the flats in the apartment in question are meant for residential use, it is not permissible for respondent No.3 to use the said flat for a commercial purpose without prior permission of respondent Nos.1 and 2. Unfortunately, though this Writ Petition is pending from 2008, none of the respondents have filed a counter affidavit. Respondent Nos.1 and 2 are, therefore, directed to consider and dispose of the representations dated 15.02.2007, 30.07.2008 and 08.09.2008 of the petitioner and take appropriate action in accordance with law, if it is found that respondent No.3 has been running a Beauty Parlour, which undoubtedly constitutes commercial activity in the residential apartment, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of this order. Subject to the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, WPMP.No.30590 of 2008 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ____________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J Date: 29.08.2011 ES
