THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 18/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J ================== W.P(C)No.17255 of 2007 ================== Dated this the 18th day of August, 2008. J U D G M E N T The petitioner claims that the petitioner has been assigned one acre of land as per Ext.P1 order dated 23.9.1976. The petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that patta has not been issued to the petitioner pursuant to Ext.P1. The petitioner therefore seeks a direction to the respondents to issue patta to the petitioner. But for the present, the petitioner would be satisfied with a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 representation filed by the petitioner in this regard. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner. Till orders are so passed, the petitioner shall not be evicted from the land in question. S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE rhs
