THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.24513 of 2011 ORDER: Heard Sri D.Madhava Rao, Learned Counsel for the petitioner, Learned Government Pleader for Revenue (Telangana Area) and, at their request, the Writ Petition is disposed of at the stage of admission. The impugned proceedings dated 22.08.2011 is a show cause notice issued by the Joint Collector, Hyderabad (first respondent) calling upon the petitioner to show cause why the Occupancy Rights Certificate (ORC) granted earlier in his favour by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Secunderabad dated 17.06.2009 not be cancelled. Sri D.Madhava Rao, Learned Counsel for the petitioner, would assert that the impugned show cause notice is wholly without jurisdiction; the first respondent had suspended the order of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Secunderabad granting ORC to the petitioner, entertaining an appeal which was filed beyond the limitation prescribed of 30 days; the said order was passed even without a petition for condonation of the delay being filed by the second respondent before the first respondent; and the impugned order, whereby the order of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Secunderabad was suspended, was only to circumvent the orders passed by this Court in W.P.No.25485 of 2010 whereunder the Secunderabad Cantonment Board was directed to grant layout permission. That the first respondent has jurisdiction to entertain an appeal under Section 24 of the Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Abolition of Inams Act, 1955 is not in dispute. The contention urged is that the first respondent could not have entertained the appeal filed beyond 30 days more so, even in the absence of an application filed by the second respondent seeking condonation of delay. These, and other contentions, can as well be urged before the first respondent. In the light of the submission that the impugned order is passed only to defeat the direction issued by this Court to the Secunderabad Cantonment Board to grant layout permission, I consider it appropriate to fix a time frame within which the first respondent shall be required to pass final orders pursuant to the impugned show cause notice. Sri D.Madhava Rao, Learned Counsel for the petitioner, submits that the petitioner shall file her objections to the impugned show cause notice within one week from today. The first respondent shall, within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of such objections, pass final orders thereupon, in accordance with law, after giving both the petitioner and the second respondent an opportunity of being heard. The Writ Petition stands disposed of accordingly. However, in the circumstances, without costs. RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J Date:30.08.2011 Note:Furnish copy by 02.09.2011 bo usd
