A copy of the said petition has been produced as Exhibit P1. When long delay occurred in the matter, the petitioner submitted an application under the Right to Information Act and a reply as per Exhibit P2 has been given stating that no such application is received in the office. Thereafter, the petitioner approached the State Land Board which directed the petitioner to approach the Taluk Land Board itself. Accordingly, the petitioner filed Exhibits P4 and P5 before the W.P.(C) No.11989/2010 2 Taluk Land Board in October 2009. All that the petitioner seeks is for a direction to the Taluk Land Board to consider and pass orders on Exhibits P1, P4 and P5. There will be a direction to the Taluk Land Board to consider and pass orders on Exhibits P4 and P5 within a period of five months, after hearing the petitioner. In the meanwhile, any proceedings for dispossession of the petitioner will be kept in abeyance. This writ petition is disposed of as above. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
