No.3412 of 2010 (B) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 2nd day of February, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner's complaint is that initially he made an application for building permit, which was rejected by Ext.P2. Though he resubmitted the application, the same was again rejected by Ext.P4. Ext.P4 was challenged before this Court, and following Ext.P5 judgment in WP(C) No.17026/2007 dated 17/09/2007 he was asked to cure the defect by Ext.P6. It is stated that he cured the defect and submitted the application once again by Ext.P7. The complaint is that even after the submission of Ext.P7, there has not been any response from the 3rd respondent. It is in these circumstances, this writ petition is filed. 2. If as stated by the petitioner, on receipt of Ext.P6, he has resubmitted the application curing the defects as per Ext.P7, the 3rd respondent should not have delayed consideration of the application. 3. In view of the complaint that Ext.P7 remains unattended, WP(C) No.3412/2010 -2- I dispose of this writ petition directing the 3rd respondent to consider Ext.P7 and pass orders thereon with notice to the petitioner. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before the 3rd respondent for compliance. This writ petition is disposed of as above.
