THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/01/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.(C) No. 868 OF 2008 C = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 8th January, 2008 J U D G M E N T Petitioner has filed this writ petition mainly aggrieved by the steps taken by the respondents to demolish a portion of the compound wall constructed by him. I do not see any valid ground for the petitioner to raise such an objection. If public purpose demands widening of the road the petitioner may also have to sacrifice a portion of his compound wall for which, if he is entitled to in law, he will be compensated. 2. However, his request is confined to consideration of Ext. P3 which is stated to have been filed before the 1st respondent. The prayer in Ext. P3 is to exclude the portion of his compound wall while the road is widening. If Ext. P3 has been received, it is for the 1st respondent to consider the same and take a decision thereon about which I do not wish to express any opinion. Writ petition is disposed of as above.
