But under Section 184 of A.P.M.Act, 1965, it is the obligation of the land owner to form the road as per standards giving access to the sites and connect them to the existing road before disposing his land as house sites. Further as per Rule 8 of the layout rules 1970 (G.O.Ms.No.62, dt. 28-1-70) the width of the streets and roads in the layout shall conform to the provisions of the General Town Planning Scheme or Master Plan. In this case, the petitioner has demarcated 80’ wide road but not formed as per standard, not obtained the approval of layout and not handed over the roads and reserved open spaces to the Municipality. This office has issued a notice on 20-5-95 to the petitioner and his co-owners directing them to form the road as per standard and to handover the reserved site to the Municipality as required under Section 184(b) of the A.P.M.Act, duly applying for approval of layout within 10 days failing which the department will execute the formation of road and the expenses will be recovered from him under Section-187(2) of A.P. M. Act. But, the petitioner has not given satisfactory reply. This office has issued another notice on 24-7-1995 through its standing counsel. Sri K.S. Jayaram, Advocate, Anantapur in his letter dt. 16-8-95 informed on behalf of his client i.e., the present petitioner that reply to the notice will be sent soon. Instead of giving proper reply to this office, the petitioner filed W.P.No.18593 of 1995 in the High Court of Judicature with false material. The Municipality has filed detailed counter with facts of the case before Hon’ble Court. Further the petitioner has filed a contempt case in C.C.No.674 of 1995 to threaten the department and thereby to gain advantage as per his will and wish. Subsequently, the petitioner has stated that he is agreeing to withdraw his writ petition and requested to place the subject before the council for allotment of alternative site to him and accordingly withdrawn the writ petition. There is no promise or assurance of any kind to the petitioner.
