J U D G M E N T The petitioner is aggrieved by Ext.P6 order. But, against that order he has preferred Ext.P7 appeal before the Director of Surveys. In view of the above, it is unnecessary for this court to consider the validity of Ext.P6. Accordingly, the first respondent is directed consider and pass orders on Ext.P7, if the same is received and pending, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner and the third respondent. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, JUDGE. MS
