NO. 13672 OF 2005 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 22nd day of May, 2008 JUDGMENT Even though petitioner claims to have filed appeal against the demand of contribution before the Wakf Board, standing counsel for the Wakf Board submitted that no appeal is pending. Since W.P. is pending for the last three years, I feel one more opportunity can be given to the petitioner to file appeal along with a copy of this judgment within three weeks from now. If such an appeal is filed, the Wakf Board will proceed to dispose of the same without any delay. However, if no appeal is filed as above then contribution in terms of the original demand will be recovered from the petitioner. (C.N. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR) Judge kk 2
