P1 and P2, he has purchased a Saw Mill and as his attempt to get a No Objection Certificate transferred was unsuccessful, petitioner made applications to the 1st respondent for the issue of a fresh NOC. Ext.P4 is the application for fresh NOC and Ext.P5 is an application that was made for the issuance of temporary NOC as well. It is in view of the delay in considering these applications, writ petition was filed. 2. Now that an application for NOC has been made and that application has been delivered to the 1st respondent, it is appropriate that the 1st respondent shall consider Ext.P4 application made by the petitioner for grant of a fresh NOC. Therefore, I dispose of this writ petition directing that the WPC 644/08 :2 : 1st respondent shall take up and consider Ext.P4, the application made by the petitioner for grant of an NOC as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within six weeks of production of a copy of this judgment.
