JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- W.P.C. NO. 25275 OF 2007 H -------------------------------------- Dated this the 24th August, 2007 JUDGMENT Petitioner is a Co-operative Bank which is aggrieved by the sale proceedings as evidenced by Ext.P8. Petitioner has preferred Ext.P9 petition purporting to be under Section 72 of the Revenue Recovery Act. Since the petitioner has preferred Ext.P9 purporting to be under Section 72 of the Revenue Recovery Act, I feel that there should be a direction to consider Ext.P9 provided it is pending consideration. Learned counsel for petitioner submits that Ext.P9 was given by hand delivery and also by Registered Post. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to consider and take a decision on Ext.P9 in accordance with law, after affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and respondents 3 and 4, within a period of three weeks from today. Government Pleader shall communicate this Judgment to the first respondent. K. M. JOSEPH, JUDGE kbk.
