THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA W.P. No. 16583 of 2009 Oral order: Aggrieved by the action of the officials of the respondent- Corporation in threatening to demolish the shops constructed by him in the cellar of the building bearing D. No. 47-14-10/6, situated at Dwaraka Nagar, Visakhapatnam, without issuing any notice and without following the due process of the law, the petitioner filed the present writ petition. The learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-Corporation on instructions submitted that construction of shops in the cellar of the building is not permissible, and the Commissioner of the respondent- Corporation is taking steps to get such illegal constructions demolished after issuing notice and by following the due process of law. In view of the above stand taken by the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: If the respondent-Corporation intends to demolish the constructions made by the petitioner in the cellar portion of the building in question, he shall follow the due process of law, in that he shall issue notice to the petitioner and after considering the explanation, if any, to be submitted by the petitioner to such notice, shall pass appropriate orders and then take action in accordance therewith. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated: 12th August, 2009 KSR
