Item No.8
THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE HIMA KOHLI
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE B. VIJAYSEN REDDY
WRIT APPEAL No.567 of 2020
JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Hima Kohli)
1. The appellant/writ petitioner is aggrieved by an order dated
03.11.2020 passed by the learned Single Judge dismissing
W.P.No.19181 of 2020 filed by him.
2. The prayer made by the appellant/writ petitioner in the writ
petition was for directing the respondents No.2 and 3 to permit him to
construct a pucca grave of his mother in the Muslim Grave Yard
attached to Masjid E Mohammadia Old Airport Road, Nagarjuna
Colony, Gautam Nagar, Ferozguda, Hyderabad. The said petition was
opposed by the respondent No.2/Wakf Board stating that there are
factual issues involved in the case that cannot be entertained in a
petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India and that
the appellant/writ petitioner ought to seek redressal before the Wakf
Boad. Persuaded by the said submission, the learned Single Judge has
dismissed the writ petition.
3. Today, Mr. Abu Akram, learned counsel for the respondents
No.2 and 3 states on instructions that the Wakf Board has no objection
to the appellant/writ petitioner beautifying the grave of his mother at
the site in question and constructing a pucca structure over it.
4. In view of the above, the impugned order is quashed and set
aside. The appellant/writ petitioner is permitted to construct a pucca
structure over the grave of his mother at the site in question and
beautify it. Before doing so, a written intimation of the date on which
the appellant/writ petitioner proposes to visit the site with workmen to
undertake construction work shall be communicated to the respondent
No.4.
5. The present appeal is allowed and disposed of along with the
pending applications, if any, with no order as to costs.
