2. Heard Sri Raj Kumar Rudra, learned counsel representing Sri S. Jagadish, learned counsel for the petitioners and Sri Putta Krishna Reddy, learned Standing Counsel for respondent No.2. Perused the record.

3. When the matter is taken up for hearing, learned Standing Counsel would contend that in view of 120-M (JA-1) Dept, dated 31.03.2011 and G.O.Ms.No.56 MA & UD (J1) Department, dated 05.02.2011, the application dated 08.10.2014 submitted by the petitioner for renewal of lease for a period of three years from 01.11.2011 to 31.10.2014 cannot be considered as a lease period of the shop Nos.3-4-1 and 3-4- 2 were already completed the agreed lease period as stated above.

4. Further, this Court issued notice vide docket order dated 27.10.2014 and there was no interim order passed by this Court. Apparently, the petitioners are on the footing that they are still continuing their lease. However, to meet the ends of justice, the respondent-authorities are directed to follow the due process of law, in the event, if they intend to dispossess the petitioners from the said shops.

5. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
