THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/06/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, J. ------------------------------------------- W.P(C).No.16036 OF 2009 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 10th day of June, 2009 JUDGMENT The petitioners are residents of Kallara Grama Panchayat. They complain about the dumping of waste from the market into a wet land which they call as a pool. They say that the waste, vegetables, fish and waste from the slaughter houses are also dumped. There cannot be a slaughter house without a proper licence and there cannot be any butchering without butchers' licence being given by the Panchayat. Whatever that be, on the petitioners own showing, it is evident that the learned Ombudsman for Local Self Government Institutions has taken note of the complaint based on the above facts and has issued an order on 17.4.2009 in O.P.No.477/09, requiring the Deputy Director of Panchayats to visit the spot and make a report. It is improper and unfeasible to have a parallel exercise through the jurisdiction of this Court. Hence, I do not find any ground to issue any writ as sought for by the petitioner. Therefore, without WPC.16036/09 Page numbers prejudice to the petitioner's rights to prosecute the proceedings before the learned Ombudsman, this writ petition is dismissed.
