THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE G. CHANDRAIAH WRIT PEITITON No.24079 of 2009 DATED:24.12.2010 BETWEEN: ABDUL MAZID & OTHERS …PETITIONERS. AND: THE ADILABAD MUNICIPALITY & OTHERS & OTHERS …RESPONDENTS. THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE G. CHANDRAIAH WRIT PEITITON No.24079 OF 2009 ORDER: - This writ petition is filed by the petitioners seeking for a writ of mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in coming to the petty fruits business place of the petitioners i.e., in the area of Gandhi Chowk, Shivaji Chowk and Ambedkar Chowk at Adilabad at Shivaji Chowk near S.B.H. Adilabad and threatening to remove the petitioners as illegal and arbitrary and violative of Articles 14, 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India and consequently to direct the respondents not to interfere and not to dispossess the petitioners four wheel pushing carts from the places i.e., Gandhi Chowk, Shivaji Chowk and Ambedkar Chowk at Adilabad and not to harass them by threatening to evict them from the said premises. It is the case of the petitioners that they are the petty fruit vendors in selling bananas and other seasonable fruits on 4 wheel pushing cart at Gandhi Chowk, Shivaji Chowkand Ambedkar Chowk, Adilabad since 12 to 15 years without any interference from any person and now, the respondents-authorities are threatening them to remove all pushing carts on the ground that they are causing inconvenience to the traffic on the road. This Court by order dated 20.11.2009 passed the following Order: “In the meanwhile, the respondents shall not interfere with the business of the petitioners as long as the push carts are not stationed in such a way as to cause any inconvenience or obstruction to traffic.” In case the petitioners are conducting the business in an objectionable manner, certainly, the authorities are having power to regulate the traffic by removing the obstructions, if any being caused by the petitioners. In the facts and circumstances of the case coupled with the fact that the petitioners are eking out their livelihood by doing business on their pushing carts, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I feel it just and proper to treat the interim order passed by this Court on 20.11.2009 as a final order while disposing of the writ petition. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents not to interfere with the business of the petitioners as long as the push carts are not stationed in such a way causing any inconvenience or obstruction to the traffic. ____________________ G.
