BY SC SRI.S.RADHAKRISHNAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30/03/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J ------------------- W.P.(C).8631/2010 -------------------- Dated this the 30th day of March, 2010 JUDGMENT Petitioner claims that in respect of his property, which has now been assigned, the compensation is proposed to be disbursed to certain other persons. At that stage, petitioner raised his claim before the 2nd respondent and contended that the compensation awarded should be deposited before the Court under Section 31 of the Land Acquisition Act. This claim has been raised by the petitioner by submitting Ext.P4. But however orders have not been passed on Ext.P4. 2. Learned Standing Counsel appearing for the respondents informs that no final decision on Ext.P4 has been taken and that disbursement of the amount will only after a decision on Ext.P4 is taken. In my view, the submission made on behalf of the respondents will redress the grievance of the petitioner. Therefore writ petition is disposed of directing the 2nd respondent to take a decision on Ext.P4 as expeditiously as W.P.(C).8631/10 2 possible, and thereafter the amount will be disbursed as undertaken above.
