Tulasi Reddy Counsel for the Respondent No.7: SMT.G.JYOTHI KIRAN The Court made the following Oral Order: (per Sri Devinder Gupta, CJ) Appellant is not a party to the writ petition. Leave granted on an application made. We have heard the learned counsel for the appellant. On 5.2.2004, the Deputy Municipal Commissioner, Circle-5, Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad passed an order cancelling the assessments as also the receipts issued/PTN numbers allotted to six persons. It was done pursuant to the complaint which was received from the appellant. Appellant in the complaint had alleged that the Tax Inspector has colluded with Sri Shaik Anwar Basha and issued fake municipal numbers and fake tax receipts. On examining the complaint, without issuing notices to the affected persons, the order dated 5.2.2004 was passed. Obviously, this was questioned by the writ petitioners in the impugned writ petition alleging violation of principles of natural justice. Learned single judge by the order impugned in the writ appeal set aside the order dated 5.2.2004 and reserved liberty to the Municipal Corporation-authorities to take necessary action in accordance with law after issuing necessary notices and affording opportunity to the writ petitioners. We fail to understand how appellant herein can be said to be a necessary or proper party in a matter which is concerning the Municipal Corporation or writ petitioners. Appellant was only a complainant. In case, appellant has got any further grievance or dispute as regards title, it is for the appellant to initiate appropriate proceedings before the Civil Court, but, appellant cannot be permitted to challenge the order, which is just, lawful and equitable. The writ appeal is accordingly dismissed. _____________________ DEVINDER GUPTA, CJ Date: 29th September, 2004 _________________ C.V.RAMULU,J Pnb To 1.
