TO JUDGE Rp ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 21781 OF 2011 ===================== Dated this the 24th day of August, 2011 J U D G M E N T According to the petitioner, 85 ares of property situated in Re.Sy.No.532/13, Block No.34 of Kottappuram Village exclusively belongs to the petitioner by virtue of the settlement deed dated 18/8/2008. It is also his case that the property has been mutated in his name. It is stated that despite all the above, tax is refused to be accepted and therefore he filed Ext.P3 complaint before the 2nd respondent. No action has been taken on the complaint and that led him to file this writ petition. 2. If the facts are as stated above, I see no reason why the complaint shall not be enquired into. Therefore, I direct the 2nd respondent to cause an enquiry into the complaint of the petitioner and on that basis, pass orders in the matter. This shall be done at any rate within 8 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
