Before approaching this Court, the petitioners through their Advocate had served a legal notice dated 17.5.2008 (Annexure P-5) upon respondents No.1 to 5. It is case of the petitioners that in stead of their legal notice, neither the aforesaid vends have been closed, nor any reply to the CWP No. 13528 of 2008 -2- said legal notice has been filed. After hearing counsel for the petitioners, in view of the aforesaid facts, without issuing notice of motion to the respondents, as it will un-necessary delay the proceedings, we dispose of this petition with a direction to respondent No.2 to consider and decide the legal notice (Annexure P-5) in accordance with law within a period of two months, by passing a speaking order.
