HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. PRAKASH RAO C.R.P.No. 855 of 2008 Date: 24-12-2010 Between: Mohammed Asghar Hussain ……. Petitioner and Syed Hussain Ali and another ……… Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. PRAKASH RAO C.R.P.No. 855 of 2008 ORDER: In this Revision petition, the petitioner, who is the third party-claim petitioner, seeks to invoke Section 22 of the Andhra Pradesh Buildings (Lease, Rent and Eviction) Control Act, assailing the order, dated 05-02-2008 passed in E.A.No.69 of 2007 in E.P.No.19 of 2007 in R.C.No.258 of 2001 on the file of the Second Additional Rent Controller, Hyderabad, whereby the claim petition filed by the petitioner was rejected. The main ground urged on behalf of the petitioner in this Revision Petition is to the effect that even though the claim petition requires to be enquired into and then only orders have to be passed on merits, the Court below at the threshold itself rejected the claim petition without holding any enquiry. Admittedly there has been no enquiry at all. Normally the claim petition is as could as a regular application where necessarily a detailed enquiry has to be conducted by providing due and sufficient opportunity to both parties without which any order rejecting as such would be totally against the principles of natural justice. Therefore, the Civil Revision Petition is allowed. The order, dated 05- 02-2008 passed in E.A.No.69 of 2007 is set aside. The matter is remitted back to the Court below directing to dispose of the application on merits after holding an enquiry by providing due opportunity to both parties. The entire exercise shall be completed within a period of three months from the date of receipt of copy of this order. No costs. ________________ B. PRAKASH RAO, J Date: 24-12-2010 YCR
