HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE A.RAMALINGESWARA RAO WRIT PETITION No.2338 of 2006 ORDER: The present writ petition is filed seeking a direction to the 1st respondent to forward the application of the petitioner for power connection in respect of Shed Nos.8, 9, 20 and 21 of Craftsmen Guild, Industrial Estate, Warangal, to the 3rd respondent. It is the case of the petitioner that the petitioner is a registered entrepreneur, having registered his name with the District Industries Centre, Warangal, in the year 1995 for starting the unit of printing and manufacturing of note books including book binding and paper bags. He commenced production in the year 1996 by taking a house on lease. He applied for a shed in the Craftsmen Guild, Industrial Estate, Warangal through the Andhra Pradesh Small Scale Industries Development Corporation Limited (APSSIDCL), Warangal, by paying requisite amount, when there were 9 vacant sheds. When the sheds were not allotted according to seniority, he filed W.P.No.18105 of 1997 challenging the action of the APSSIDC and also a consequential direction not to dispossess him from the sheds under his occupation. This Court granted an interim direction on 04.08.1997 not to remove the machinery from the sheds, as such he was continuing in shed Nos.8, 9, 20 and 21. The said writ petition was ultimately disposed of on 29.01.1997 directing the officer in-charge of the Craftsmen Guild, Industrial Estate, Warangal, to consider the representation of the petitioner and others and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. Subsequently, it appears that the Liquidator of APSSIDC issued a notice on 16.06.2011 to the petitioner demanding him to pay rental arrears, and to purchase the sheds under his occupation on outright sale basis. It appears that the matter has not attained finality. While so, he applied for electricity connection and that application has to be forwarded by the 1st respondent to the 3rd respondent. In view of the disputes, the 1st respondent has not forwarded the application. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The respondents have not filed a counter even after 7 years. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the 1st respondent is directed to consider the case of the petitioner for forwarding the application of the petitioner for electricity connection provided the sheds under his occupation are regularized by paying the required amount as per law to APSSIDC. With the above observation, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. As a sequel, Miscellaneous Petitions, if any, pending in this petition shall stand closed. _______________________ A.RAMALINGESWARA RAO, J Date: 03.12.2013 ska
