The petitioner claims to be a cultivating tenant of the said land. According to the petitioner, as per the provisions of the Kerala Land Reforms Act, the petitioner is entitled to assignment of the said land. The petitioner contends that the 1st respondent is liable to take suo motu proceedings in respect of the same under Section 72C of the Kerala Land Reforms Act. The petitioner has filed Ext.P8 representation in this regard before the 1st respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P8 expeditiously. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P8 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner and the 2nd respondent.
