BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI.P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/12/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: V.GIRI, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C).No.36855 of 2008 ------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of December, 2008. JUDGMENT The petitioner challenges Ext.P11 order passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, exercising appellate powers under the Transfer of Registry Rules. 2. Learned Government Pleader points out that there is a remedy of revision available under Clause 18(iv) of the said Rules. Though the provision for revision seems to suggest, it can be exercised only suo motu, it is trite that where there is conferment of revisional powers, it can be exercised on application also. 3. Accordingly, if the petitioner prefers a revision against Ext.P11 before the revisional authority, within three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, the same shall be entertained and disposed of on merits, within two months from the date of receipt of the revision petition. Writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- (V.GIRI) JUDGE sk/ //true copy// P.S. To Judge
