THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 15/03/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) NO.4123 OF 2010 (M) -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 15th day of March, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner made an application for a building permit to construct a residential building in her property in Rs. No.680/6,7 of Malappuram Village. That was rejected by Ext.P3 order passed by the 3rd respondent, stating that the area in question falls within the industrial zone in terms of the approved master plan. It was challenging this order that this writ petition is filed. 2. Learned Government Pleader who has obtained instruction submitted that since the issuance of Ext.P3, the master plan has been reviewed. If that be the case, necessarily, Ext.P3 calls for a reconsideration. 3. Therefore I quash ExtP3 and direct the 3rd respondent to reconsider the application for building permit in the light of the scheme as modified. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 4 weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. Writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/
