Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the third respondent. Neither of them is able to inform me as to what is the status of the claim petitions referred to in the Writ Petition. In all probability those claim petitions are already disposed of. If the first respondent finds that the claim petitions I.A.Nos.80/03, 81/03, 82/03 and 83/03 filed by the petitioner are even now pending, the first respondent will take up those claim petitions, hear the concerned parties and dispose of them in accordance with law at the earliest and at any rate within two months of receiving copy of the judgment. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. No costs. srd PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE
