illegal Tempk: Arch construction made by the respondent No.4 on

27.02.2026 at. Tarnaka and filed a twitter (now x) through his counsel

on the same ctay but, the respondent No.3 did not take any action. A

2

complaint was liled on 15.03.2026 on GHMC Mobile App however; the

respondent authorities failed to act on the said complaint within one

week as per the law enacted under TG-bPASS Act, 2020. Aggrieved by

the said inaction, the present writ petition has been filed-

3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner had

made a complaint on 15.03.2026 vide Grievance Reddressal Cell

through GHMC Mobile App stating that respondent No.4 temple in

Tarnaka is building an illegal arch. Learned counsel has further

drawn attention of this Court to photographs annexed to this writ

petition, wherein it is noted that digging activity is being undertaken

on the road. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in the

event of the respondent authorities demolishing the unauthorized

structures over the subject property, there is chance of respondent

No.4 again starting unauthorized structures, as respondent No.4 is

not effected in any way as the demolition expenses are being incurred

by the respondent authorities from the public money as such a

direction may be given to the respondent authorities concerned to

collect the expenses incurred for demolition of unauthorized

structures over the subject property from the respondent No.4. It is

further submitted that since the said activity is being continued

inspite of the grievance brought to the notice of the respondent

authorities by way of complaint dated 15.03.2026; the respondent

authorities may be directed to consider the complaint dated

15.03.2026 and take action in a time bound period.

4. On ttre other hand, Mr. Kishore Kumar, learned Standing

Counsel for GHMC appearing for respondent No.3 on instructions

would submit that a show cause notice dated L3.O3.2O26 was issued

to respondent No.4. Learned standing counsel further submits that

pursuant to the complaint of the petitioner daled 15.03.2026, a

speaking orrier dated 28.03.2026 has been issued directing the

construction:; made on the subject property within (15) days failing

which further action will be taken to remove, alter or pull down the

deviated por:ion/un-authorized construction and expenses thereof

further submits that since the alleged construction activity is being

carried out i;r the Tarnaka Zone, prays this Court to add Deputy

respondent t: this writ petition, for effective implementation of

directions of t.:is Court.

5. Heard k:arned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing

Counsel appearing for respondent No.3 and perused the material

made availabk: on the record.

6. Since this Court, time and again, directed the Municipal

Authorities to initiate action against the illegal constructions by

following due process of law, it is noticed that the authorities are

failing to initiate action against the illegal constructions. However, in

some of the ()ases, authorities are issuing statutory notices and

I

4

thereafter not proceeding further to initiate further course of action

unless writ petitions are liled for not considering complaints/

representations made to civic authorities.

7. It is not out of place to mention Section z(61 of the Telangana

State Building Permission Approval and Self Certification System (TG-

bPASS) Act,2o2o (for short the TG-bPASS ActJ encourages citizens to

put on notice to the Civic Authorities regarding unauthorized

constructions. Section 7(61 of the TG-bPASS Act is extracted for

reference.

accordance with law.

10. The Hon'ble Supreme court in shanti sports club and ors.

vs. union ol'India (uoll and ors1, held that violators of the Town

Planning Scheme cannot be granted any relief. The relevant

observations irre as under:

"52. Before concluding, we consider it necessary to

enter a caueat. In all deueloped countries, great

emphasis has been laid on the planned

deuelopm.ent of cities and urban areas. The object

of planned deuelopment has been achieued. bg

rigorous enforcement of master plans prepared.

' ((2009) ls scc 7o5)

L2

after careful studg of umplex rssueg scientific

research and rationalisation of laws. The peopte of

thase countries haue greatlg contrtbuted. to the

concept of planned deuelopment of cities bg stricttg

adhering to the planning lauts, the master plan etc.

Theg respect the laws enacted by the legislature

f.or regulating planned deuelopment of the cities

and seldom there is a complaint of uiolation of

master plan etc. in the construction of buildings,

residential, institutional o r commercial.

ln contrast, scenario in the deueloping countries

like ours rrs substantiallg different. Though, the

competent legislatures haue, from time to time,

enacted laws for ensuring planned deuelopment of

the cities and urban area-s, enforcement thereof

has been extremelg poor and the people haue

uiolated the master plans, zoning plans and

building regulalions and bge-laws with impunitg.

In last four decades, almost all cities, big or small,

haue seen unplanned growtlt In the 21st century,

the menace of illegal and unauthoriz,ed

constructions and encroachments has acquired

monstrous proportions and eueryone ha.s been

paging heaug pice for the same. Economicallg

afJluent people and those lnuing support of the

political and. executiue apparatus of the State haue

constntcted buildings, commercial complexes,

multiplexes, malls etc. in blatant uiolation of the

municipal and toutn planning laws, master plans,

zonal deuelopment plans and euen the sanctioned

building plans. In most of the cases oLlllegal or

unauthorized onstructions, the officers of the

municipal and other reoulatoru bodies turn blind

eue either due to the influerrce of higher

functionaies of the State or other extraneous

reasons. Thase utho construct buitdings in uitolation

of the releuant statutory prouisions, master plan

etc. and those who directlg or indirectlg abet such

:

T

.,#n*.i....s.*M

13

violations are totally unmindful of the graue

consequences of their actions and/ or omissions on

the present as well a.s future

generations of the

country which will be forced

to liue in unplanned

cities and urban areas. The people belonging to

this class do not realize that the constructions

made in uiolation of the releuant laws, master plan

or zonal deuelopment plan or sanctioned building

plan or the building rs used for a purpose other

than tlrc one specified. in the releuant statute or the

master plan etc., such constntctions out

unbearableburden on public

facilities/amenities like water. electrl.citu,

seweraqe etc. apant from creatinq chaos on

the roads. TfE pollution caused due to traffic

congestion affects the health of tlrc road users. The

pedestrians and people belonging to weaker

secfions of the society, utho cannot afford the

hxury of air- conditioned cars, are the worst

uictim.s of pollution. TtEg suffer from skin diseases

of different types, asthma, allergies and euen more

dreaded drseases like cancer. It can only be a

matter of imagination how much the gouernment

hoos to spend on the treatment of such persons and

aLso for controlling pollution and aduerse irnpact on

th.e enuironment due to traffic congestion on the

rood.s and chaotic anditions created due to illegal

and unauthorized constructions. Thls Court hq,s.

53. Unforunately, despite repeated jud.gments bg

tle this Court and High Courts, the builders and.

other afflaent people engaged in the constntction

respect

for regulatory mechanism envisaged in the

municipal and other similar lanas, as also the

to protect the u)rong doers either by issuing

administratiue orders or enacting laws for

constructions in the name of compassion and.

harm to th.e concept of planned deuelopment of the

22- Further, the Hontle Supreme Court in Esha Ekta

Apartments Co-operative Housing Society Ltd. and Ors.

Vs. lVlunicipal Corporation of Mumbai and Ors (2013) 5

SCC 357, held that Constitutional Courts ought not to

exer<:ise their equitable jurisdiction to regularize illegal and

unatrthorized constructions. The relevant observations are

as under:

"45. In uiew of the aboue discusslon, we hold that

the Petitioners in the transfened case haue failed

to make out a case for directing the Respondents

to regularize the construction made in uiolation of

the sanctioned plan. Rather, the ratio of the aboue-

noted judgments and, in partiatlar, Royal Paradise

Hotel (P) Ltd. u. State of Haryana and Ors. (supra)

is clearlg attracted in tlrc present co.se. We would,

like to reiterate tlut tto authority

adrninistering municipal laws and other

sim;llor laws can encourage ulolation of the

sanctloned ptan. The Courts are also

expected. to refrain frcn exerclsing equitable

jurisdiction for regularization of illegal and

unquthorized, constrrzctions else it would

encourage aiolators of the planning laws and

destrog the aery ldea and concept of planned.

d.euelopment of urban as well as ntro,l o,rerzs.'

(emphasis supplled)"

11. It is ak;o relevant to refer to the orders passed by the Hon'ble

Supreme court in writ Petition (civilf No.295 of 2ol22 l2o24INsc

8661 (Bulldo:zer's Casef, wherein the Hon'ble Supreme Court gave

certain directions and guidelines to the Government for manner of

proceeding in demolition of the unauthorized construction.

16

12. Since the provisions of the GHMC Act, 1955 mandates issuance

of notice to the person concerned and the GHMC authorities are

empowered to examine and decide the issue with respect to

unauthorized constructions, by issuing notice to the concerned

parties, the respondent authorities are directed to issue notice to the

concerned parties and pass appropriate orders strictly in accordance

with law. As such, in the present case, issuance of notice to

respondent No.4 is dispensed with.

13. Having considered the above facts and circumstance, recording

the submission made by the learned counsel appearing on either side,

without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case and since

the respondent No.3 had issued a speaking order dated 2g.o3.2026,

after considering judicial precedents referred to hereinabove, this

Court deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the

respondent authorities to consider the petitioner's complaint dated

15.03.2026 and after giving fair opportunity of hearing to petitioner

and respondent No.4 and after verifying the relevant documents, shall

pass appropriate orders strictly in accordance with law, as

expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of four (04)

weeks, from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and

communicate the same to the petitioner. Since the subject property

falls under the Tarnaka zorle, Deputy commissioner, circle-43,

Tarnaka, secunderabad zorte, GHMC be added as party respondent to

17

this writ petition, for effective implementation of the directions passed

by this Court. Registry is directed to make necessary amendments.

14. It is mzrde clear that if the allegations made by the petitioner are

found to be true, the respondent authorities shall take appropriate

action strictlv in accordance with law and in exercise of taking such

action agains;t respondent No.4; if any expenses are incurred, the

same shall be recovered from the respondent No.4.

15. It is also clarified that in the event of respondent No.4 is

otherwise agllrieved may avail remedy of filing application seeking

modification of this order, in accordance with Iaw.

16. With ttre above directions, this writ petition is disposed of.

There shall be no order as to costs.

As a sequel thereto, miscellaneous applications if any pending
