BY GP V MANU THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 07/07/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN, J ........................................... WP(C).NO. 19024 OF 2009 ............................................ DATED THIS THE 7th DAY OF JULY, 2009 JUDGMENT The petitioner represents a group of persons, who had filed objections before the panchayat voicing grievance against the grant of permission to install a mobile transmission tower. Different grounds are raised. The question whether the panchayat committee has the power to decide it in public interest and impose restrictions is a different matter, but any person aggrieved by a permit issued by the Municipality or panchayat is entitled to seek relief from the Tribunal for Local Self Government institutions. Going by the date of the impugned order and the probable date on which the petitioner would have got a copy of that order, he not being a party to those proceedings, even now the petitioner would be well within time which would fall for being condoned by the Tribunal on appropriate application and sufficient cause being shown. The grievance voiced has been repeated before different authorities. The petitioner has also bonafide moved this writ petition. In view of the availability of Wpc 19024/2009 2 that alternate remedy before the Tribunal, this writ petition is dismissed without prejudice to that course. THOTTATHIL B RADHAKRISHNAN, JUDGE lgk/8/7
