THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 02/03/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C.) No.6608 of 2009 --------------------------------- Dated, this the 2nd day of March, 2009 J U D G M E N T The petitioner submits that though by Ext.P1 he purchased an extent of 9.950 cents of land in Survey No.158/7 A2 of Mankunnam Village, Kanayannur Taluk, in the resurvey that was held, due to a mistake that was committed, there was reduction of 1 cent in the total extent held by him. According to him, he came to know about this only when mutation was sought and on realising the mistake, he filed Exts.P3 & P5 before the 2nd respondent for correction. Orders have not been passed on the applications and that led the petitioner to file the writ petition. 2. Since the grievance of the petitioner is as above, it is only appropriate that the 2nd respondent passes orders on the applications made by the petitioner. Therefore, I direct the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Exts.P3 & P5 applications. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within eight weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
