IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) WEDNESDAY, THE FIFTH DAY OF OCTOBER TWO THOUSAND AND FIVE PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI BILAL NAZKI, THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE and THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 18110 of 2005 Between: 1 Sri Ogirala Adinarayanamurthy and 4 others. ..... PETITIONERS AND 1 State of Andhra Pradesh, rep by Principal Secretary to the Government, Revenue Department, Secretariat, Saifabad, Hyderabad, and 6 others. .....RESPONDENTS ORDER: (Per Hon’ble Sri Bilal Nazki, The Acting Chief Justice) Heard learned Counsel for the parties. The grievance of the petitioners is that the devotees of 6th respondent- Temple park the vehicles in a haphazard manner, and although the temple provided parking space, the devotees do not park their vehicles in the parking space. Counter has been filed by the third respondent-Commissioner of Police, Hyderabad. It is stated in his affidavit that whenever there is any function in the Kalyana Mandapam, one constable and one Head constable are deputed to that area in order to see that parking is done in the regular parking area, and no inconvenience is caused to the residents of that area. It is further stated that Inspector and Sub-Inspector of Police are also visiting the area on regular basis to oversee the problem created by parking of the vehicles. It is also submitted that parking place is provided behind the temple premises by the temple authorities, and some of the devotees do not park their vehicles in the parking area but park their vehicles inside the temple complex which is creating obstruction to other devotees to enter into the temple. In this view of the matter, we do not think that it will serve any purpose, if we keep this writ petition on board. Therefore, we dispose of the writ petition directing the Police concerned to see that public roads and the temple area, other than the parking area in the temple, is not used for parking of the vehicles. The authorities of the 6th respondent-temple are also directed not to allow the devotees to park their vehicles in the area, which is not meant for parking, and in case of any problems on that account, they can take recourse to help from the Police concerned. With these directions, writ petition is disposed of. No costs. --------------------------------- (Bilal Nazki, A.C.J) 5th October, 2005 --------------------------------- (R.Subhash Reddy, J) LUR
