THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SATISH CHANDRA SHARMA
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE ABHINAND KUMAR SHAVILI
WRIT APPEAL No.122 of 2022
JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma)
The present writ appeal is arising out of an order
dated 31.01.2022 passed by the learned Single Judge in
W.P.No.4966 of 2022.
The facts of the case reveal that the appellants/writ
petitioners came up before this Court being aggrieved by
the action of the Khammam Municipal Corporation in
demolishing the shops of the appellants/writ petitioners
i.e., mutton shop, fish shop, chicken shop etc., including
the slaughter house situated at Wyra Road, Khammam
City and District, without following due process of law.
The learned Single Judge has disposed of the writ petition
and a month's time has been granted to the shopkeepers to
vacate the premises in question.
Learned counsel for the appellants/writ petitioners
has informed this Court that an identical matter i.e,
W.A.No.91 of 2022 (M.D. Anwar and others v. The State of
2
Telangana and others) was disposed of by this Court on
25.02.2022
granting six months time to the other
identically placed persons to vacate the premises, subject
to furnishing an undertaking and in the present case also
the appellants/writ petitioners have agreed to give an
undertaking that they will also vacate the premises in
question within six months.
Learned counsel for the Khammam Municipal
Corporation has stated before this Court that the shops
have been demolished and the appellants/writ petitioners
are continuing in the temporary structures and if the
appellants/writ petitioners are permitted to continue, it will
be health hazardous to the residents of the township i.e.,
Khammam Town.
This Court has asked a specific question to the
learned counsel for the Khammam Municipal Corporation
i.e., since when the appellants are continuing at the place
in question. He was fair enough in stating before this
Court that the appellants/writ petitioners are continuing
for the last twenty years.
In the light of the aforesaid, as in an identical case
six months time has already been granted to vacate the
premises in question, in the present case also six months
time is granted to the appellants/writ petitioners to vacate
the subject premises and the order passed by this Court in
W.A.No.91 of 2022, dated 25.02.2022, shall be applicable
mutatis mutandis in the present case also.
Let a copy of the order passed by this Court in
W.A.No.91 of 2022, dated 25.02.2022, be kept on record in
the present case.
Let the undertaking, as stated above, be filed today
itself in the matter.
The writ appeal is accordingly disposed of.
The miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall
stand closed. There shall be no order as to costs.
