The petitioner's license has been suspended by the Town and Country Planning Department on the ground ostensibly that the signature of one of its Officer is forged. The impugned Order passed is dated 30-5-2005. 4. Having regard to the circumstances of the case, namely, that the construction license of the petitioner has been suspended and a vigilance inquiry has been ordered without any result, the petitioner is not in a position to take appropriate steps for the construction of a compound wall. This undesirable uncertainty can be brought to an end only by directing respondent no.1 to conclude the inquiry regarding the signature on the petitioner's license within a period of four weeks from today and communicate the order to the petitioner. Hence, order accordingly. Rule made absolute in the above terms. S. A. BOBDE, J. N. A. BRITTO, J. RD
