According to the petitioner, the 2nd respondent is bound to consider the application of the petitioner in accordance with Ext.P4 circular issued by the Government, which has not been done. 2. I have heard the learned counsel appearing for the Panchayat also. The respondents would submit that they would consider the application filed by the petitioner after conducting necessary enquiry in the matter. 3. In the above circumstances, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on the application for building permit submitted by the petitioner in accordance with Ext.P4 circular as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment. It would be open to the petitioner to rely on Ext.P6 judgment or any other material in support of his case. The 2nd respondent shall afford an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner also.
