Sq.mts.

construct building for S+G+1 by maintaining setbacks as 3.42m on front side, rear
side 1.50m, side(1)-1.37m,side (2)-2.53m on remaining sides as per approved plan.

As per plan As on Ground Deviation
Setback(Front) 3.42m 2.50m 0.92
Setback(Rear) 1.50m 1.35m 0.15

Usage residential residential ---
No of floors Stilt+ground+1st Stilt+ground+1st Partly
floor floor+ partly 2nd unauthorized

Moreover, the owner has also constructed in the portion of Stilt which is left
for parking. The accused did not pay any heed to the notice of the complainant to
stop the construction issued by the complainant U/s 452(1)&461(1) dt-26-3-2021 of
A.P. Municipal Corporation Act and then U/s 452(2) dt-03-09-2021 of A.P.

2020. The said notices have been received by the accused, but did not comply with
notices or did not stop the work. By the time the complainant issued the above
notices, the accused has completed S+G+1stfloor+2nd floor (partial) by totally
disrespecting the Building Rules in force. Hence, entire effort of arresting the
construction in deviation to the approved plan have gone in vain. Such irresponsible
and total disrespect to the building rules by the accused, has jeopardized the
execution of building rules. With construction to deviated plan, the accused has
caused huge loss to the Government in terms of building fees, besides of causing
uneven building pattern. The accused, if gone unpunished, will lay examples for
others to violate the building rules by setting a worst precedent.

“Schedule ‘U’ of section 596 of APMC Act 1955 has notified following fine for
violation of section 452 “In respect of non-High rise buildings violation of setbacks
on each side of each floor except building line upto Ten percent of the permissible
set back, a fine equivalent to two hundred percent of the value of the land in
question which is in force as fixed by registration depart for the extent of violated
floor area”.

Similarly, “Sub rule No 3(30)(e) of AP Building rules-2017 vide G.O.M.S.No.119


MAUD Dt 28-03-2017 states that “Any person who whether at his own instance or
at the instance of any other person or anybody including the Government
Department undertakes or carries out construction or development of any and in
contravention of the statutory master plan or without permission, approval or
sanction or in contravention of any condition subject to which such permission or
approval or sanction has been granted shall be punished with imprisonment for a
term which may extend to three years, or with fine which may extend to ten percent
of the value of land or building including land in question as fixed by the Registration
Department at the time of using the land or building. Provided that the fine imposed
shall, in no case be less than fifty percent of the said amount”.

Further, the complainant submits that the section 612 of AP Municipal Corporation
Act, 1955 reads that, “Whoever does any act in contravention of any of the
provisions of this Act or of any one, notification or order made, issued or passed
there under and not otherwise provided for in this Act shall, on conviction be
punished with imprisonment which may extend to two years or and with fine which
may extend to two thousand rupee or both”.
4. The complainant submits that Guntur Municipal Corporation comes under A.P.
Municipal Corporation Act-1955, hence the complainant is filing this complaint.
Further section 663 of APMC Act-1955 states that “All offences against this Act,
or against any rule or byelaw made there under, whether committed within or
without the city shall be cognizable by a Magistrate appointed under section-664
or until such appointment by 1st class magistrate having jurisdiction in the city and
no such magistrate shall be deemed to be incapable of taking cognizance of any
such offence or of any offence against any enactment hereby repealed by the
reason only of his being liable to pay any Municipal Tax or of his being benefited
by Municipal fund”.
5. Besides as per section 666 of APMC Act-1955, “if any person summoned to appear
before a magistrate to answer a charge of an offence punishable under this Act or
any rule or bye law made there under fails to appear at the time and place
mentioned in the summons and if service of summons is proved to the satisfaction
of the Magistrate and no sufficient cause is shown for the non appearance of such
person the Magistrate and no sufficient cause is shown for the non appearance of

of the case against the accused for the offence u/s 452(2) and 612 of the A.P.

Corporation Act-1955 seeking explanation, why action should not be taken on said
building and there was no reply from the accused to GMC. The said notices have been
received by the accused, but did not comply with notices or did not stop the work. In
this regard Honorable High Court of AP has passed following order, the operational
part of which is placed below ”Guntur Municipal Corporation file a counter affidavit by
annexing no cos issued to the accused & a perusal of counter would indicate that
accused is proceeding with the construction in violation of sanctioned plan. In the view
of above, the Complainant shall see that accused shall not make any construction in
violation of the sanction plan.

completed S+G+1stfloor+2nd floor (partial) by totally disrespecting the Building Rules
in force. Further, this corporation issued final speaking orders to remove the
construction u/s 636,637,461(2),461(4) & 452(2) of A.P. Municipal Corporation Act

for removal of unauthorized construction as per above orders of Honourable High
Court on dt:08-04-2024,but during removal the owner showed stiff resistance and
forcefully didn’t allow to demolition, photos showing attempt to remove are submitted

approved plan have gone in vain. Such irresponsible and total disrespect to the
building rules by the accused, has jeopardized the execution of building rules. With
construction to deviated plan, the accused has caused huge loss to the Government
in terms of building fees, besides of causing uneven building pattern. The accused, if
gone unpunished, will lay examples for others to violate the building rules by setting a
worst precedent.
