According to the petitioner, from Ext.P5, it is evident that the work has been completed and the Panchayat member concerned has also recommended payment. It is stated that inspite of all that, amounts have not been paid. It is contended by the petitioner that he has submitted Ext.P3 representation before the 2nd respondent claiming payment of the amount due and that the 2nd respondent has not considered the claims. Having regard to the above, I dispose of this writ petition directing the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 with notice to the petitioner and taking into account Ext.P5. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with the copy of the writ petition. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs
