THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SATISH CHANDRA SHARMA
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE ABHINAND KUMAR SHAVILI
WRIT APPEAL No.195 OF 2022
JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma)
The present writ appeal is arising out of the order dated
02.12.2019 passed by the learned Single Judge in
W.P.No.23431 of 2019.
The appellant/writ petitioner came up before the learned
Single Judge stating that he is having some workshop in the
cellar of Hi-line Apartments, bearing premises No.C-14, Road
No.12, Shaikpet Village, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad. It was
stated by him that in front of the workshop, there is a vacant
land admeasuring 80 square yards and an application was
preferred by him for the allotment of land before the Collector.
The land was not allotted and various representations were
submitted by him from time to time. He has approached this
Court earlier also by filing a writ petition i.e., W.P.No.27544 of
2002. The writ petition was disposed of on 10.09.2008 with a
direction to consider the representation preferred by the
petitioner. As nothing was being done in the matter, the
present second writ petition has been preferred i.e.,
2
W.P.No.23431 of 2019 and the learned Single Judge in
paragraph 5 of the order has held as under:-
"5. During the course of hearing, it is fairly submitted by the
learned counsel for petitioner that no application was made in
terms of G.O.Ms.No.166 dated 16.2.2008. Having regard to
the fact that the writ petition filed earlier was disposed of with
a direction to first respondent to dispose of the application, if
any, submitted by the petitioner for regularization of his possession in terms of G.O.Ms.No.166 dated 16.2.2008, it is not open to the petitioner to seek the same relief in a subsequent writ petition without making application under the said G.O. Further, the petitioner was dispossessed long ago and as per the regularization scheme, a person must be in possession and enjoyment of the structure raised by him. These parameters are not fulfilled in this case. Therefore the petitioner is not entitled for any relief at this stage and the writ petition is liable to be dismissed."
The order of the learned Single Judge reflects that the
appellant/writ petitioner is not in possession of the land in
question, it is a Government land and he also does not fulfil the
requirement for the purpose of regularisation, as he is not in
possession of the land in terms of G.O.Ms.No.166 dated
16.02.2008. Therefore, in the considered opinion of this Court,
the order passed by the learned Single Judge does not warrant
any interference. In case of a Government land, the same has to
be allotted by way of a transparent procedure i.e., either by way
of tender or by way of auction and it cannot be allotted by
submitting a representation. This Court does not find any
reason to interfere with the order passed by the learned Single
Judge.
Resultantly, the writ appeal stands dismissed.
Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand
closed. There shall be no order as to costs.
