S.A.V.Ratnam, learned counsel for the petitioner having realised that the Court is not inclined to interfere with the impugned notice, requested for granting reasonable time to permit the petitioner to make payment of the above mentioned amount. Having heard Sri V.V.N.Narayana Rao, learned Standing Counsel for respondent Nos.2 and 3, I deem it appropriate to accept the request of the learned counsel for the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is permitted to deposit 50% of the amount as demanded under notice, dated 01.04.2008 on or before 15.04.2008. If the petitioner fails to deposit the said amount as stipulated above, respondent Nos.2 and 3 shall be free to act in accordance with the tender conditions and notice, dated 01.04.2008. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of main petition, WPMP.No.9949 of 2008 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous.
