It is stated that the petitioner had filed an application for obtaining clearance certificate from the 2nd respondent-Urban Land Ceiling Authorities by remitting the requisite fee of Rs.2,09,669/- by way of bankers cheque bearing No.029431 dated 04.08.2008 drawn on Allahabad Bank, Chikkadapalli branch, Hyderabad, in favour of the 2nd respondent- Special Officer & Competent Authority, Urban Land Ceiling, Hyderabad. It is the case of the petitioner that the 2nd respondent having received the said application dated 05.8.2008, no orders have been passed and no action has been taken with regard to grant of no objection certificate so far. Hence, this writ petition. 2. Heard both sides. 3. When the writ petition came up for admission, the learned Asst. Government Pleader (Assignment) has taken notice on behalf of the respondents. 4. The limited grievance of the petitioner is that the 2nd respondent having accepted his application dated 05.08.2008 along with the requisite fee did not pass any orders so far. 5. In that view of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the 2nd respondent-Special Officer & Competent Authority, Urban Land Ceiling Authority to consider the application dt.05.08.2008 for grant of no objection certificate and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of four (4) seeks from the date of receipt of the copy of the order. 6.
