By the present application, the applicants seek permission/leave to the Village Panchayat of Anjuna/Caisua to grant/issue permission for construction in the said property of the applicants under survey no.374/1-A of Village Anjuna in terms of the plans approved by the concerned statutory authorities. Counsel appearing for the applicants states, on instructions, even though such prayer is made by the applicants, applicants are restricting their prayer only for construction of six flats in a building to be constructed in survey no.374/1-A. These six flats to be constructed are on the ground and first floor. 3. We have heard learned Senior Counsel Mr. A.N.S. Nadkarni, who appears for Goa State Pollution Control Board and other Counsel appearing for respective parties. Earlier orders passed by this Court in similar circumstances also have been brought to our notice. Previously also, we have noticed while granting such permission that the applicants have complied with the provisions of law. In this application, we are inclined to grant such permission in favour of the applicants and Village Panchayat Anjuna/Caisua to grant the licence in favour of the applicants for carrying out construction of six flats in the property under survey no.374/1-A of village Anjuna. 4. It has been brought to our notice that local body concerned in the case at hand is not Municipal Council. However, it is the Village Panchayat which is constituted under the provision of Goa Panchayat Raj Act, 1994. The plan which has been approved by the Goa State Pollution Control Board is on record. The said plan has been verified by the Goa State Pollution Control Board. 5. In this view of the matter, we are inclined to grant permission in favour of the applicants and grant of licence by Village Panchayat, Anjuna for carrying out construction of six flats on ground and first floor, to be constructed on survey no.374/1-A of Village Anjuna. Civil Application is allowed and, accordingly, disposed of. Liberty is granted in favour of the applicants to move this Court in case construction work is not complete in schedule. Such liberty is also granted in case the applicants decide to go for more construction i.e. more than six flats. S.B. DESHMUKH, J. F. M. REIS, J. NH
