RESPONDENTS' EXHIBITS: N I L /TRUE COPY/ P.S.TO JUDGE Kss ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ---------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No. 31168 OF 2011 ----------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 23th day of November, 2011 J U D G M E N T Ext.P5 is stated to be an application filed by the petitioner, alleging that respondents 6 to 10, have violated the provisions of Act 28 of 2008 and seeking appropriate actions under the said Act. From the endorsement on Ext.P5 itself shows that this application was received by the office of the first respondent on 4.11.11. The application being a statutory one and prima facie, since the petitioner has proved that it has been filed before the statutory authority, it is necessary that the first respondent should act upon the same. 2. Therefore I dispose of the writ petition directing the first respondent to take appropriate action on Ext.P5 with notice to the affected parties and as expeditiously as possible at any rate within eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. W.P.(C) No. 31168 OF 2011 :2 : 3. It is clarified that this court has only directed consideration of the application in accordance with law and has not expressed anything on the merits of the contentions raised in this writ petition. 4. Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before the 1st respondent for compliance. The writ petition is disposed of as above.
