HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY Writ Petition No.18326 of 2010 Date: July 28, 2010 Between: Venu Damodar Reddy, S/o. Sri V. Pulla Reddy, Aged about 65 years, Occ: Agriculture, R/o.Peerjadiguda, Uppal, Hyderabad … Petitioner And Peerjadiguda Gram Panchayat, Represented by its Executive Authority, Peerjadigua, Ranga- Reddy District, and two others … Respondents Order: The petitioner questions notice dated 17-06-2010 issued to him by the second respondent-Executive Authority, Peerjadigua Gram Panchayat, Ranga Reddy District. In the aforesaid notice, allegations are made against the petitioner that he is proceeding with construction in Plot No.1-55 in Sy.No.39.43 within the limits of Peerjadiguda Gram Panchayat. The said notice is mainly questioned on the ground that while calling for explanation of the petitioner, structures raised in the aforesaid plot are straightway directed to be removed. While it is the case of the petitioner that he had obtained permission from the Sarpanch of the Gram Panchayat, on the other hand, it is submitted by the learned standing counsel for the Gram Panchayat that the then Sarpanch of the Gram Panchayat had no authority to issue permission to the petitioner for construction. As much as in the impugned notice itself, structures raised in the subject plot are directed to be removed and no opportunity has been provided to the petitioner to put- forth his case, respondents are directed to treat the impugned notice as a show-cause notice calling for the explanation of the petitioner. It is open to the petitioner to file his explanation to the said notice within two weeks from today. On such explanation being filed, respondents shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders. It is made clear that, if it is found that the structures raised in the plot in question are without valid permission, it is open to the respondents to get those structures removed. At the same time, the petitioner shall not also make any further construction in the plot in question. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. ___________________ (R.
