True copy tga S.SIRI JAGAN, J ----------------------------------------- W.P.(C)NO.1481 of 2007 ----------------------------------------- Dated this the 10th day of April, 2007 JUDGMENT The petitioner challenged Ext.P6 notice directing the petitioner to appear before the Taluk Land Board and to produce claims or objections, if any, for getting exemption from surplus land. Since Ext.P6 is only a notice to which the petitioner can file objections or claims as directed therein, I am of the opinion that this writ petition is premature, and accordingly, without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to file claims or objections to Ext.P6 notice, this writ petition is dismissed. However,I make it clear that if the petitioner files objection within three weeks from today, the Taluk Land Board shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders, as warranted by law.
