        THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE A.ABHISHEK REDDY

                WRIT PETITION No.5276 of 2021
ORDER:

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, Sri Sampath

Prabhakar Reddy, the learned Standing Counsel for respondent

Nos.1 and 2, and the learned Government Pleader for Revenue for

respondent Nos.3 and 4. With their consent, the Writ Petition is

disposed of at the stage of admission itself.

The present Writ Petition is filed seeking to declare the

action of the respondents in insisting the petitioner for production

of Clearance Certificate or No-Objection Certificate from ULC

authorities in respect of the subject plot situated in survey No.77

of Kondapur Village, Serilingampally Revenue Mandal, Ranga

Reddy District, as illegal and arbitrary.

Admittedly, by virtue of the common order, dated

28.03.2017, passed by a learned Single Judge of this Court in

W.P.No.21580 of 2008 & batch, the subject land cannot be treated

as a surplus land and the relevant proceedings initiated under the

Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Act, 1976, were also quashed.

Though, the learned Government Pleader, on instructions,

has stated that as against the judgment dated 28.03.2017, passed

in W.P.No.21580 of 2008, the Government has preferred an appeal

being W.A.No.166 of 2018, and the same is pending adjudication

before a Division Bench of this Court, but has fairly conceded that

no interim orders are passed thereon till date.

In view of the same, the official respondents are directed to

consider the application dated 29.02.2016 made by the petitioner

for LRS without insisting for production of NOC from the

ULC department, and pass necessary orders thereon, duly taking

into consideration the order of this Court passed in W.P.No.21580

of 2008 & batch, dated 28.03.2017, as expeditiously as possible,

preferably, within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt

of a copy of this order. However, it is made clear that any orders

likely to be passed by the official respondents are subject to the

final orders likely to be passed in W.A.No.166 of 2018 and batch

and the petitioner shall not claim any equities in case any adverse

orders are passed against him in the writ appeal. In case of any

alienation, the petitioner shall inform the purchaser about the

pendency of the litigation and also that any orders passed by the

authorities under the LRS scheme are subject to the final orders

likely to be passed in W.A.No.166 of 2018 and batch, and such

alienation made by the petitioner is also subject to the final result

of the W.A.No.166 of 2018 and batch.

Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of.

The miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand

closed. There shall be no order as to costs.
