WRIT PETITION No.27046 OF 2017
DATE: 12.12.2025
Between :
M/s. Talettutayi Solar Projects Private Limited
A Company incorporated under Companies Act, 1956
Represented by its authorized signatory Mr. Prashanth
Kumar Reddy
… Petitioner
AND
The State of Telangana, Represented by its Principal
Secretary, Department of Energy T.S. Secretariat
Building, Hyderabad and three others.
… Respondents.
O R D E R:
This Writ Petition is filed under Article 226 of the
Constitution of India seeking the following relief:
“…To issue Writ, Order or direction more particularly one in the nature of Writ of Mandamus declaring the issuance of proceedings No.C/1677/2017 dated 02.08.2017 of the 2nd respondent to the petitioner Company is gross violation of principles of natural justice, procedure under Section 133 of Cr.P.C. and violation of Articles 14, 19(1)(g) of th Constitution of India and
consequently set aside the same an direct the respondents to conduct enquiry …”
2. Smt. P. Sujatha, learned Counsel for the petitioner, submits that respondent No. 2, without affording any opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and without obtaining any expert opinion, passed the impugned order, pursuant to which the authorities of respondent No. 3 dug open the solar power line at the substation. Aggrieved thereby, the present writ petition has been filed seeking to set aside the said order. However, she fairly submits that during the pendency of this writ petition, in pursuance of the impugned order, the solar power lines have since been restored, and the petitioner’s operations are continuing smoothly.
Accordingly, she prays that appropriate orders be passed.
3. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home submits that the impugned order was issued by the then District Collector to meet an exigency and to prevent possible public nuisance. As the order was time-bound and the directed works were completed as on date, the order is no longer in subsistence. Hence, he prays that the writ petition be dismissed.
4. I have perused the material placed on record.
5. The grievance of the petitioner pertains to the order passed by the Collector and District Magistrate (respondent No. 2) under Section 133 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, wherein it was held that the 33 KV solar power line constituted a public nuisance. Accordingly, the Superintending Engineer of respondent No. 3 was directed to open the solar power line at the substation until such nuisance was rectified by the concerned companies.
6. As informed by learned counsel for the petitioner, during the pendency of this writ petition, the solar power lines have been restored, and the petitioner’s operations have resumed. It is therefore implied that the alleged public nuisance has been rectified. In that view of the matter, the impugned order no longer survives for consideration and stands rendered inoperative. Accordingly, in the considered opinion of this Court, no further orders are warranted in this writ petition.
7. With this observation, this Writ Petition is disposed of.
There shall be no order as to costs.
Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed.
