THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SATISH CHANDRA SHARMA
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE A. RAJASHEKER REDDY
WRIT APPEAL No.539 of 2021
JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma)
The present writ appeal has been filed against order
dated 14.07.2021 in W.P.No.4096 of 2021 passed by the
learned Single Judge dismissing the writ petition preferred by
the appellant.
The facts, as stated in the writ petition, reveal that the
petitioner's father was a title holder of the property and the
petitioner has categorically stated in the writ petition that the
5th respondent with the sheer abuse of muscle power has
encroached upon the valuable property of the petitioner and
has also started raising constructions without any right
whatsoever and has also completed two floors.
The learned Single Judge has dismissed the writ
petition and has also held that in case there is unauthorised
illegal construction, the GHMC is certainly required to take
appropriate action in accordance with law and they have
rightly issued a notice under Section 636 of the GHMC Act.
So far as the issue of possession is concerned, the learned
Single Judge has held that a writ Court cannot direct delivery
of possession to the petitioner and the petitioner has to work
out his remedies in competent civil Court for recovery of
possession.
In the considered opinion of this Court, once the
petitioner is the title holder of the property and he has stated
on affidavit that he has been dispossessed from the property
and respondent No.5 is in possession of the property, the
dispute can be resolved only by filing civil suit where all
disputed questions of facts can be looked into after the
evidence is adduced by the parties. This Court does not find
any reason to interfere with the order passed by the learned
Single Judge.
The writ appeal is accordingly dismissed.
Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this Writ
Appeal shall stand closed. There shall be no order as to
costs.
