The petitioner contends that, on the strength of a building permit and an approved plan he has constructed the building. On completion of the building he has applied for numbering the same. Though he has not produced the application as such, petitioner refers to Ext.P2, a receipt issued by the respondent Panchayat on 25.2.2008 accepting fee for the application submitted by the petitioner. In view of the above, what is required to be done in this writ petition is to direct the respondent Panchayat to consider the application submitted by the petitioner for 2 numbering the building and pass orders there on. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing that, if the application stated to have been submitted by the petitioner has been received and is pending, the respondent Panchayat shall consider the same and pass orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 4 weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment before the respondent for compliance. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE vi. 3
