Apparently petitioner relies on Ext.P3 Memorandum of Settlement. 2. I heard learned counsel for the respondents also. The writ petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to consider and take a decision on Ext.P7 in accordance with law within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
