THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/03/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J ------------------- W.P.(C).7389/2010 -------------------- Dated this the 8th day of March, 2010 JUDGMENT Petitioner submits that he and four others including the 5th respondent surrendered certain properties for the construction of a road. It is stated that on that basis the Panchayat started the work as well. However, the 5th respondent thereafter started obstructing the work of the road, as a result thereof the work remains suspended and is not resumed. Complaining of this, the petitioner has filed several complaints before the authorities and there has not been any progress in the matter. Hence the writ petition is filed. 2. As pointed out by the learned counsel it is essential for the 2nd respondent Panchayat to take steps and complete the work of the road. Since the petitioner has filed Ext.P4 complaint in this behalf before the 2nd respondent Panchayat, I dispose of this writ petition directing the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P4. This shall be done as expeditiously as W.P.(C).7389/10 2 possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with the copy of the writ petition. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs
