Now, on the motion of the Housing Board, revenue recovery steps have been taken against her by the 1st respondent to recover the amount due to the Board. So, this Writ Petition is filed, challenging the recovery proceedings. Alternatively, the petitioner prays for granting instalment facility to pay the amount due under the loan account. The learned Standing Counsel for the Housing Board has filed a statement, in which it is submitted that the benefit of the one-time-settlement scheme will be extended to the petitioner, if a proper application in this regard is made by her before the expiry of the scheme on 31.03.2007. 2. If the petitioner submits an application before 31.03.2007 before the Secretary of the Kerala State Housing Board and also remits Rs.80,000/- (Rupees Eighty Thousand only) within one month from today, the competent authority of the Board shall consider and dispose of the application in accordance with law within one month from the date of payment of the above said amount. If the petitioner does not apply or make the payment, the 1st respondent will be free to proceed with the revenue recovery proceedings. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. 14.03.2007 K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR,JUDGE 2 sta
