THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.26905 of 2007 ORDER: The petitioner states that she obtained permission from the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation on 14.06.2007 to construct a building with Ground + First floor on Plot No.33 of Sy.No.83 Part, situated at Tapovan Colony, Lingojiguda village. Her grievance is that officials of the respondents are trying to demolish the structures without issuing any notice. It is asserted that the petitioner did not deviate from the sanctioned plan. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955 (for short ‘the Act’) contains extensive provisions conferring power upon the Corporation to take action against the persons, who undertake constructions without any permission, or those who deviate from the sanctioned plan. Show cause notices are to be issued depending upon the explanation that may be submitted by the recipient of notice, and final orders are to be passed. When such is the requirement under the Act, there cannot be any justification for the respondents to take steps without issuing any notice. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the respondents shall not proceed against the constructions made by the petitioner without issuing any notice under the relevant provisions of law. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ (L. Narasimha Reddy, J.) 4th November, 2009 Js.
