HON’BLE SHRI G.S.SINGHVI, THE CHIEF JUSTICE AND HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY WRIT PETITION NO.4890 OF 1987 Between: G. Srinivasa Reddy and others …Petitioners A n d The Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad Rep. by its Commissioner, Hyderabad. …Respondent :: O R D E R :: Counsel for petitioners : Shri V. Venkata Ramana Counsel for the Respondent : Smt. G. Jyothi Kiran August 28, 2006 Per G.S. Singhvi, CJ In this petition, the petitioners have prayed for quashing notification dated 12-3-1987 issued by Commissioner, Municipal Corporation, Hyderabad (for short, ‘the Commissioner’) under Section 3 (1) of the Andhra Pradesh Slum Improvement (Acquisition of Lands) Act, 1956 (for short, ‘the 1956 Act’) whereby the area specified in the schedule appended to the notification was declared as slum area. By a separate order passed today in Writ Petition No.16075 of 1987, we have quashed notification dated 11-9-1987 issued by the Commissioner under Section 3 (2) of the 1956 Act. In view of the above, we feel that it is not necessary to adjudicate on the merits of the petitioners’ challenge to the notification impugned in this petition and that ends of justice would be met by giving liberty to the petitioners to raise all legally permissible objections against notification dated 12-3-1987 as and when the Commissioner issues fresh notice proposing acquisition of the land under Section 3 (2) of the 1956 Act. Ordered accordingly. G.S.SINGHVI, CJ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J August 28, 2006 ksld
