Mrs.R.Krishnakala vs The District Collector

Madras High Court|21 February, 2017

JUDGMENT / ORDER

Mrs.R.Krishnakala, W/o V.Ravichandran, claiming to be a member of Athiparasakthi Self Help Group, was initially allotted Shop No.4 by the second respondent on a monthly rent of Rs.300/-, which has been subsequently increased to Rs.1,000/-. Again it is stated that the second respondent increased the rent from Rs.1,000/- to Rs.3,000/- on 28.3.2013 and the said increase has been questioned by one Mrs.Lakshmi of Iswaryam Self Help Group in W.P.No.17358 of 2013, which is pending. During the pendency of the said writ petition, the second respondent has sent a notice on 4.1.2017 to the petitioner and other Mahalir Self Help Groups to attend the meeting convened for issuing certain instructions with regard to the payment of rental arrears, failing which action would be taken for eviction. The said notice is put to challenge by the petitioner in this writ petition.
2. This Court finds no merit to entertain the writ petition. The reason is that when the various allottees of the shops including the petitioner were invited by the second respondent to attend the meeting to discuss about the payment of rental arrears, maintenance of shops etc., she cannot come to this Court challenging the correctness of the said notice. Secondly, the notice says that only in the event of failure of the members of Mahalir Self Help Groups to attend the meeting would warrant the further proceedings for eviction. Therefore, this Court is not able to find any unreasonableness in the impugned notice directing the petitioner to attend the meeting. Therefore, this Court is not inclined to entertain the writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed directing the petitioner to participate in the meeting as called for. Consequently, W.M.P.No.4499 of 2017 is also dismissed. No costs.
