Since what the petitioner proposes to conduct in his new building is a charitable hospital I dispose of the writ petition directing the 2nd respondent t o take up Ext.P4 and consider the same in the light of the various grounds raised in the writ petition and take a correct decision. Decision, as directed above, shall be taken at the earliest, at any rate within six weeks from today. Once decision is taken on Ext.P4, the same will be placed by the petitioner before the panchayat. If decision is not taken on Ext.P4 by the 2nd respondent within the time framein spite of the above direction, the panchayat will consider the request of the petitioner for numbering the building provisionally subject to the outcome of Ext.P4.
