RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS: NIL /TRUE COPY/ P.A. TO JUDGE DSV/- ANTONY DOMINIC, J ....................................................... W.P.(C).34205/2011 .............................................. Dated this the 21st day of December, 2011 JUDGMENT Allegation in the writ petition is that the fourth respondent has encroached into a public road and constructed a compound wall. On a complaint, the Government of Kerala issued Ext.P3 directing the District Collector to take appropriate action in the matter. It is submitted that even in spite of the above, further action is not taken and therefore, the writ petition is filed. 2. Ext.P3 shows that the Government of Kerala directed the second respondent to take action on the complaint made by the petitioner against the fourth respondent. Now that such a direction has been issued, it is necessary that the second respondent should take appropriate action in the matter. On a reading of Ext.P3, it is also evident that the second respondent has forwarded the papers to the third respondent for appropriate action. 3. Now that the petitioner complains that further action is not continued, I direct that the third respondent will take further W.P.(C).34205/11 2 action in the matter, with notice to the petitioner and the fourth respondent. This shall be done, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition. 4. It is made clear that this Court has not expressed anything on the merits and it is entirely for the third respondent to take appropriate action in the matter. Writ petition is disposed of as above.
