For Petitioner:Mr.G.Ravi For Respondent:Mr.K.Balasubramanian,Addl.Govt.Pleader ORDER The petitioner contends that he has purchased the property in question way back in 1993 and had applied for change of patta in his name by way of an application dated 13.01.2011. Since no reply has been received by them, he has immediately rushed to this Court by way of a Mandamus directing the respondents to consider his application / representation dated 13.01.2011. 2.Even though the petitioner has purchased the land in question in 1993, he has chosen to wait for 18 years to approach the Government and after making a representation for seeking patta, he comes to this Court within a period of two months seeking for a Mandamus to get his grievance redressed. It is rather unfortunate such Writ Petition is being filed. The Officials will also have to take time to consider the genuineness of the application. 3.In view of the impending election, the respondents are directed to consider the representation dated 13.01.2011 within a period of seven months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. In the result, the Writ Petition stands disposed of. No costs.
