W.P.(C)s.32571 & 32583/2011 .............................................. Dated this the 7th day of December, 2011 JUDGMENT Common complaint of the petitioners in these writ petitions is regarding delay on the part of the first respondent in passing orders on their applications for mutation. 2. Insofar as the petitioner in W.P.(C).32571/2011 is concerned, petitioner submits that on the strength of Ext.P1 sale deed, Ext.P4 application for mutation was made. Insofar as the petitioner in W.P.(C).32583/2011 is concerned, on the strength of Exts.P1 and P2 sale deeds, he made Exts.P6 and P7 applications for mutation. So far, orders have not been passed on these applications. Hence the writ petitions are filed. 2. As at present, the case of the petitioners is that despite having made applications for mutation of their properties covered by the aforesaid title deed, orders have not been passed thereon. 3. Taking note of the grievance of the petitioners, the writ petitions are disposed of directing that if the applications referred W.P.(C)s.32571 & 32583/11 2 to above are pending, the first respondent shall consider the same in accordance with law and pass orders thereon. This process shall be completed as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs /true copy/ P.A. To Judge
