He approached this Court, complaining that orders have not been passed on Ext.P1 application. However, it is seen from Ext.P4 G.O.(MS) No.85/2010 dated 05- 04-2010 that if the purpose of removal of soil is for house construction, no such permission is necessary. 2. Therefore, clarifying that if the purpose of removal is to convert the plot into a house site, as contemplated in paragraph 2 of Ext.P4 Government Order, it will be open to the petitioner to proceed with the removal of soil, this writ petition is disposed of. Sd/- (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) aks The words “house site” occurring in the first and second paragraphs of the judgment dated 23-12-2010 in W.P(C) No.38542/2010 are corrected and substituted as “site for commercial building”, as per order dated 27-01-2011 in I.A.No.958/2011.
