At their request the Writ Petition is being disposed of at the stage of admission. The petitioner’s grievance in this Writ Petition is that the 5th respondent was proceeding with construction of a multi-storeyed building, after demolishing the house which existed earlier, without prior permission from the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation. Sri R.Radhakrishna Reddy, learned Standing Counsel for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, would submit, on instructions, that the 5th respondent had commenced construction of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors, over the existing ground floor, without obtaining permission of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation and that he had violated the condition stipulated in G.O.Ms.No.623 dated 01.12.2006. Learned Standing Counsel would submit that a notice under Section 452 of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act, 1955, was issued to the 5th respondent on 27.04.2010 calling upon him to show cause why action should not be taken for such unauthorized construction. In as much as the respondent-Corporation has already initiated action, for the unauthorized construction being resorted to by the 5th respondent, the cause in the Writ Petition does not necessitate any further adjudication. Leaving it open to the respondent-Corporation to take action against the first respondent, in accordance with law, the Writ Petition is disposed of. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J 29th April 2010 CVRK
