It is stated that petitioners 2, 3 and 5 who are yet to get connections have priority Nos. 610, 611 and 420 respectively and that presently applicants with priority Nos. upto about 400 have been given connection. Going by the present rate the 5th respondent should be getting his connection within a month and the other two petitioners also will get their connection strictly according to their priority, and very likely, before the end of January, 2008. In view of this assertion, which is acceptable to the petitioners and also considering the fact that the petitioners 1, 4, 6 and 7 have already been given water connections, there is no further relief necessary in this case. Original petition is closed recording the assertions mentioned above. M.M.PAREED PILLAY (RETIRED CHIEF JUSTICE, HIGH COURT OF KERALA) M.R.HARIHARAN NAIR (RETIRED JUDGE, HIGH COURT OF KERALA) ps
