K. Ramesh Kumar v. Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation
Case brief
What is this about?

What did the court decide?
The Writ Petition was allowed with a direction to respondent No.1 to take appropriate decision on the application without insisting on production of 'No Objection Certificate' from Revenue Authorities
