SR.GOVT.PLEADER SMT.K.R.DEEPA THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11/01/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 744 OF 2010 (P) ===================== Dated this the 11th day of January, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner's present grievance is against Ext.P16, the resolution of the 3rd respondent to acquire 30 cents of land for the purpose of establishing a market complex. According to the petitioner, Panchayat does not have the resources to establish a market. It is also his case that the proposal itself is ill motivated. It is pointed out that the petitioner has moved Ext.P17 before the 1st respondent Government invoking its powers under Section 191 of the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act seeking cancellation of Ext.P16. 2. Having regard to the nature of the controversy, I feel it is only appropriate that the 1st respondent decides on Ext.P17. This shall be done by the 1st respondent as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 2 months of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition. It is directed that before final orders are passed, petitioner and the 3rd respondent Panchayat will be put on notice and will be heard. WPC 744/10 :2 : Petitioner may produce a copy of this writ petition along with a copy of this judgment before the 1st respondent for compliance. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
