THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.26814 of 2009 ORDER: The mother of the petitioner was the owner of the property in House No.4-7-73, at Shivaji Nagar of Attapur Village, Rajendra Nagar Mandal, R.R.District. The petitioner states that the property was gifted to him by his mother on 22.02.1996. He submitted an application to the respondent with a request to enter his name in the municipal records in respect of that property. However, the mother of the petitioner appears to have objected to the same, by addressing letter dated 22.04.2008. Taking note of the same, the respondent addressed letter dated 14.07.2009 to the petitioner stating that his request cannot be acceded to, in view of the objection raised by his mother. The petitioner contends that his mother issued a letter of no objection on 07.02.2009 and that the same was not taken into account. It is also stated that she is no more and died on 27.10.2009. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent. The petitioner relied upon a gift deed said to have been executed by his mother and requested the respondent to effect mutation of the entries. As required under the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, objections were invited. The mother of the petitioner submitted her objection vide letter dated 22.04.2008 disowning the gift deed. Naturally, the respondent rejected the claim of the petitioner through his letter dated 14.07.2009. The petitioner states that during her lifetime, his mother has changed her stand and in fact revoked her objection. Even if that is true, the respondent cannot be expected to take any steps, unless the person in whose name the property is entered and the proposed transferee files a joint application and appear physically. Even that possibility does not exist now, since the mother of the petitioner is said to have died. The petitioner has to obtain the legal heir certificate from the competent authority and file fresh application. As and when such application is filed, it shall be dealt with on its own merits by the respondent and appropriate orders shall be passed within two months from the date of presentation of the same, after inviting objections from the affected parties. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with the above observation. Thee shall be no order as to costs. _________ 09.12.2009 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.26814 of 2009 Date: 09.12.2009 JSU
