This writ petition has been filed for issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondent no. 1 to decide the application dated 8-5-2008 (Annexure No. 3 to the writ petition) seeking permission for installation of Jhulas by speaking order. The only prayer made in the present writ petition is that the respondent no.1 may be directed to decide the application dated 8-5-2008 made by the petitioner to the Chairman, Nagar Palika Parishad, Nainital, by a speaking order, wherein the petitioner has prayed for permission to install Jhulas in Mallital Flates. The grievance of the pertitioner is that the application has not yet been decided by the respondent no.1 and the petitioner had been installing Jhulas in the Mallital Flates for the last 12 years during summer season. Prayer is innocuous. The respondent no. 1 Chairman, Municipal Board, Nainital, is directed to decide the application of the petitioner dated 8- 5-2008 (Annexure No. 3 to the writ petition) by a speaking order, within a period of ten days from the date of production of certified copy of this order. With the above observation, the writ petition is disposed of finally. Costs easy. All pending applications stand disposed of. (B.S. Verma, J.) RCP
