He further argued that even though the appellants and other residents raised several objections to the exclusion and inclusion of certain areas from Kandukuru Municipality, the concerned authority did not objectively consider the same and the State Government arbitrarily issued the final notification. Another argument of the learned Counsel is that the notification impugned in the writ petition is ultra vires the provisions contained in Andhra Pradesh Municipalities (Inc...
