TO JUDGE S.SIRI JAGAN, J - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - W.P(C)No. 35186 of 2008 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 19th day of January, 2009 J U D G M E N T Petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that respondents 2 to 5 have encroached into a road vested with Municipality and have constructed temporary sheds on the road which effectively blocks the access of the petitioner to his house. The petitioner has filed Ext.P2 complaint before the 1st respondent in this regard. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2 expeditiously. Although, notice have been issued to the respondents, none of the respondents have chosen to enter appearance and contest the writ petition. On 9.1.2009 when the matter was taken up, I granted an adjournment to today to give another opportunity to the respondents. Accordingly, it comes up today. Today also none appears on behalf of the respondents. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner as well as the respondents 2 to 5, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE rhs
