It is stated that she has been in possession and enjoyment of the said house constructed in a total extent of 80 Square Yards for more than 40 years and she is entitled to allotment of the same in terms of G.O.Ms.No.515 Revenue (Assignment-1) Department dated 19.4.2003, G.O.Ms.No.2 Labour Employment Training and Factories (Lab-III) Department dated 31.01.2002 and G.O.Ms.No.67, Labour Employment Training and Factories (Lab-III) Department dated 28.11.2000. It is stated that in spite of repeated representations made by her, the respondent failed to consider her request for allotment of the land/house in her possession. Hence, the present writ petition seeking a declaration that the action of the respondent in not considering the representations of the petitioner, is arbitrary and illegal. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondent. Under G.O.Ms.No.67, dated 28.11.2000, orders were issued for regularization and registration of excess land occupied by the allottees under the subsidized Industrial Housing Scheme. The petitioner claims that she is entitled to the benefits granted under the said order. Since the representations made by the petitioner dated 29.11.2003, 25.5.2005, 15.3.2006 and 20.4.2007 with a prayer to extend the benefit of the above said orders are pending with the respondent, it is for the respondent to consider the claim of the petitioner in accordance with the law. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion as to the claim made by the petitioner that she is entitled to the benefit of G.O.Ms.No.515 dated 19.4.2003, G.O.Ms.No.2 dated 31.01.2002 and G.O.Ms.No.67 dated 28.11.2000, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent to consider the representations of the petitioner and pass appropriate orders in accordance with the law, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. _______________ Justice G.Rohini Date:04.06.2009 mrb
