SESHASAYANA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.13685 of 2010 Between: Sri Guru Aditya Tutorial Institution rep. by its Correspondent Y. Apparao and others ... PETITIONERS a n d The District Educational Officer, Guntur, Guntur District and others … RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioners herein are the tutorial institutions established in the year 2005 at Dachepalli in a slum and remote area to cater the educational needs of the students who are unable to go to long distances to the city. 2. The State of Andhra Pradesh framed the Andhra Pradesh Tutorial Institutions (Registration and Regulation) Rules, 1997 in exercise of the powers conferred by Section 32 read with Section 99 of the Andhra Pradesh Eucation Act, 1982 providing the rules relating to registration and regulation of the tutorial institutions. The petitioners contend that the rules were framed but the activity of registration is not being undertaking by the Government and that they are prepared to obtain registration as and when the respondents take steps in this regard. 3. Their grievance is that the respondents are preventing them from conducting tuitions as tutorials to students. When the writ petition came up for admission the learned Government Pleader for School Education takes notice on behalf of Education. 4. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Government Pleader for School Education. 5. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the issued covered in this writ petition is squarely covered by the Judgment dated 01-12-2009 passed by this Court in W.P.Nos.25936 of 2009 and batch. This factual aspect has not been contradicted by the learned Government Pleader for School Education. The relevant portion of the order passed in writ petition Nos.25936 of 2009 and batch reads as hereunder: “The establishment of tutorial institutions is not prohibited under law. On the other hand, the Government framed rules for registration and regulation of such institutions. The order passed by this Court in W.P.No.11007 of 2009 and batch is in respect of unrecognized schools. Firstly, the petitioners do not answer the description of schools. Secondly, even assuming that the petitioners are indulging in any activity contrary to law, they can be proceeded against, only after issuance of show cause notice. No such steps were taken. Hence, the writ petitions are allowed and the respondents are directed not to interfere with the activity of imparting informal tutorial education by the petitioners. It shall however, be open to them to issue notice and take further action in accordance with law. There shall be no order as to costs.” 6. Following the judgment of this Court in W.P.Nos.25936 of 2009 and batch, this writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents not to interfere with the activity of imparting informal tutorial education by the petitioners. It shall however, be open to them to issue notice and take further action in accordance with law. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________________________ B.
