BY SRI.S.RAMESH BABU, SC FOR R1 THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 03/07/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.(C) No. 19422 OF 2008 K = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 3rd July 2008 J U D G M E N T Though in the writ petition the challenge is against Ext. P4 order passed by the Tribunal for Local Self Government Institutions, disposing of Appeal No. 527/07 filed by respondents 4 and 5, learned counsel is confining his request for a direction to the Secretary of the Corporation to expeditiously decide the matter in pursuance to Ext. P4. 2. I heard the Standing Counsel who entered appearance on behalf of the respondent Corporation also. 3. A reading of Ext. P4 shows that though the matter has been remanded by the Tribunal, the Tribunal did not specify any time limit for the Secretary to decide the matter in pursuance thereof. In view of this, I feel, a time limit has to be fixed considering the urgency that is pointed out by the petitioner. 4. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the W.P.(C) No. 19422 OF 2008 -2- 1st respondent shall dispose of the matter as directed by the Tribunal in Ext. P4 judgment with notice to the parties as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 4 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 1st respondent for compliance. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
