TO JUDGE Mn T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR,J. ------------------------------------- W.P.(C)No.3591 Of 2008 ----------------------------------------------------- DATED THIS THE 8th DAY OF DECEMBER, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is the Convener of a beneficiary committee constituted for the implementation of a drinking water project in the Pungamchal-Kodiyamkundu Tribal Colony under the 2nd respondent- Panchayat. The main grievance raised in the Writ Petition is regarding the absence of any progress in the implementation of the Project. It is stated that the project was included by the 2nd respondent-Panchayat for implementation under the Swajaldhara II Project for the year 2006-07 for a total estimate of Rs.2,83,000/-. It appears that in the priority list the project was assigned Sl.No.11, without following the norms. It is in these circumstances that this Writ Petition has been filed. 2. Evidently, the project was for the year 2006-07 and now the projects for the year 2010-11 may be in the final phase of the financial year. If the project has not been implemented so far, the petitioner can move respondents 1 and 2 - Panchayats seeking for suitable implementation of the same and to include it in any other project on a priority basis. Leaving open the said remedy, the Writ Petition is disposed of. Sd/-( T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE.) dsn
