GOVT.PLEADER SRI.P.NARAYANAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 22/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 32474 OF 2010 (H) ===================== Dated this the 22nd day of October, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioners made an application for assignment of 6 cents of Government Puramboke land in RS No.26 and RS No.89/2 of Neduva Amsom in Malappuram District. That application was rejected by Ext.P3 order passed by the 3rd respondent. Against that order, petitioners filed Ext.P5 appeal which is pending before the 2nd respondent. 2. Meanwhile, proceedings were initiated under the Kerala Land Conservancy Act for the eviction of the petitioners resulting in Ext.P4 order. Against Ext.P4 order, petitioners filed Ext.P6 revision, which is pending consideration of the 3rd respondent. It is seeking disposal of Ext.P5 appeal and Ext.P6 revision the writ petition is filed. 3. Evidently, the proceedings under the Kerala Land Conservancy Act are consequential to the rejection of the petitioners' application under the Land Assignment Act. In that view of the matter, what is to be decided first is Ext.P5 appeal. Therefore, I direct that the 2nd respondent, before whom Ext.P5 is WPC No. 32474/10 :2 : filed, shall dispose of the appeal with notice to the petitioners and as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 8 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. 4. Once the appeal is decided by the 2nd respondent as above, the petitioners shall produce copy of the appellate order before the 3rd respondent, who shall thereupon dispose of Ext.P6 revision at any rate within 8 weeks thereafter. 5. Petitioners shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before respondents 2 and 3 for compliance. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
