THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.7039 of 2010 ORDER: The Kadiri Municipality conducted auction of leasehold rights in respect of various shops, including Shop No.4 of Municipal Commercial Shoppint Complex at Santha Market, Kadiri, in the previous financial year. The petitioner participated therein and emerged as highest bidder. However, he states that the possession was not delivered. Therefore, he is said to have filed a suit in the Court of Principal Junior Civil Judge, Kadiri, for recovery of the amount deposited by him. Again the Commissioner, the 1st respondent, conducted the auction on 29.01.2010. The petitioner submitted a representation on the same day to the 1st respondent alleging that certain irregularities have taken place and ultimately, prayed that the auction may be cancelled and that re-auction to be conducted. His grievance is that no steps were taken on his representation. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The petitioner alleged several irregularities, which are said to have crept in the auction conducted on 29.01.2010. The truth or otherwise of the said allegations, needs to be verified by the 1st respondent. This Court cannot record any finding in that regard. At the same time, the representation made by the petitioner cannot be kept pending indefinitely, particularly in view of the fact that the lease itself was for a limited period. Hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the 1st respondent to pass appropriate orders on the representation made by the petitioner on 29.01.2010, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as costs. _____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.28.04.2010. Note: Furnish C.C. in three days. (b/o) GJ
