According to him, that application was rejected on the ground that he had not produced a solvency certificate and also possession certificate of the building. According to him, without issuing a fresh notification, arrangements are being made for locating the shop at a different place and the proposal is to appoint the 5th respondent. On that allegation, the petitioner has filed Ext.P2 representation before the 3rd respondent and in this writ petition what is sought for is a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider Ext.P2. Taking into account the facts as alleged by the petitioner, this writ petition is disposed of directing that if Ext.P2 has been received and is pending before the 3rd respondent, the 3rd respondent shall take up Ext.P2 and consider the same. This shall be done, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 4 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
