SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.14640 OF 2007 ---------------------------------------------- Dated this the 15th day of June, 2011 JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed by the petitioner challenging Ext.P7 order of the 1st respondent informing the petitioner that the petitioner obtained an ownership certificate for a shed constructed by him in which a toddy shop is being conducted by misrepresentation regarding the nature of land in which the petitioner has constructed the shed. 2. I am of opinion that insofar as disputed questions of facts are involved, it is up to the petitioner to challenge Ext.P7 appropriately in an Appellate Forum as provided under the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act where the petitioner can adduce evidence in support of his contentions for redressing grievances against Ext.P7. Accordingly, the writ petition is closed without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to challenge Ext.P7 appropriately before the appellate/revisional authorities as provided under the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act. To enable the petitioner to seek such remedies, I direct that the interim order passed by this Court, would continue to be in force for a further period of two months. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE acd
