DATED THIS THE 5TH SEPTEMBER, 2007 J U D G M E N T The grievance of the petitioner who was conducting textile business under the name and style 'M.S.P.Stores' at Kilimannoor in a building belonging to the respondent-Panchayat on the basis of a licence arrangement with the Panchayat is that on the allegation that licence fee fell into arrears, the Panchayat has closed down the business. She has a further grievance that her request for permission to conduct business during Onam season was not accepted by the Panchayat. 2. Exts.P7 and P8, I find, are only notices issued by the Secretary of the Panchayat. The petitioner has remedies available to her under the Panchayat Raj Act against Exts.P7 and P8. I relegate the petitioner to those remedies and dispose of the Writ Petition accordingly. However, there will be a direction to the Panchayat not to sell the articles which were seized from the premises for a period of two months from today.
