Grievance of the petitioner is that his application filed under section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act has not been forwarded by respondent no.1 - Land Acquisition Officer to the civil court. At this stage, it is not possible to know what are the difficulties of the Land Acquisition Officer in not forwarding the application of the petitioner, but we only express that if the application filed by the petitioner is complete in all respects and if it is within limitation, respondent no.1 - the Land Acquisition officer shall forward it to the civil court. We also make it clear that if there is any other objections which are legally binding, for which the Land Acquisition Officer is not in a position to refer the matter to the Civil Court, he shall pass an appropriate order in this respect and intimate to the petitioner so that the petitioner can follow further remedies available to him. The petition is rejected. We make it clear that we have not made any observation on merit but we only desire that the Land Acquisition Officer shall exercise his powers and pass an appropriate order.
