Quick Summary: The court has directed GHMC to consider a regularization application regarding unauthorized buildings in Hyderabad. Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy was in charge of the case.

The Case Begins

A formal request was made by property owners in Tolichowki, Hyderabad. They were upset because their application to make some unauthorized buildings legal wasn't being considered. The properties in question are located at H.Nos.8-1-22/1/J, 8-1-22/1/J/A, and 8-1-22/1/J/B, covering 570 square yards.

Who Said What

Mr. Mohd. Moin Ahmed Quadri spoke for the property owners, while Mr. M. Arun Kumar, the lawyer for GHMC, spoke for the other side. The GHMC lawyer promised the court that they would look at the application according to the rules.

"The application of the petitioners will be duly considered in accordance with law."

Court's Decision

Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy decided not to go into the details of the case. Instead, he told the GHMC to look into the regularization application (Inward No.CTZ2024047939) under the GHMC Act, 1955. GHMC must send notices to the property owners and any other interested parties, giving them a chance to express their views.

Status Quo Maintained

Until the application is reviewed, the current state of the property must stay the same. The court emphasized keeping things as they are.

Final Thoughts

The case was closed with no costs involved. This means the court has finished its part, and now it's up to GHMC to take the next steps.

"Pending consideration of the regularization application, status quo, obtaining as on today, shall be maintained in respect of subject property, in all respects."

Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy's order ensures that the property owners' application will be looked at fairly and according to the rules.
