RAMACHANDRA MENON, J. .............................................................................. W.P.(C) No. 5027 OF 2011 ......................................................................... Dated this the 17th February, 2011 J U D G M E N T The grievance of the petitioner is that the request for mutation of the property concerned, which came to the hands of the petitioner by virtue of Exts. P1 and P2, is not being considered by the respondents, without any legally sustainable reasons and hence that the same is liable to be intercepted by this Court. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has already preferred Ext.P3 application for effecting mutation under the 'Transfer of Registry Rules' and in turn to remit the basic tax. Because of the delay in finalising the proceedings, the petitioner is not in a position to satisfy the basic tax and to enjoy the property in an effective manner. 2. Heard the learned Government Pleader as well 3. Considering the facts and circumstances, the first respondent is directed to consider and pass appropriate orders W.P.(C) No. 5027 OF 2011 2 on Ext. P3 application for causing necessary entries in the Revenue records and for enabling the petitioner to satisfy the basic tax. Steps in this regard shall be finalised, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment . The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the first respondent for further steps. The Writ Petition is disposed of. P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, JUDGE. lk
