The dispute raised in this writ petition is regarding the amount demanded towards the price of the shed, as per Ext.P3. According to the petitioner, the amount paid by his predecessor-in-interest is not given credit. Other disputes are also raised. I feel that this is not the forum to settle the dispute in this matter. But, the second respondent or the competent officer of the Kerala Small Industries Development Corporation shall afford an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner, take into account his objections to the amount demanded in Ext.P3 and serve a fresh demand notice on him. The petitioner may pay or work out his remedy against it before the competent authority. A decision in this regard shall be taken by the competent authority within one month from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. Till such a decision is taken, no coercive steps shall be taken against the petitioner, provided he produces a copy of this judgment before the second respondent, within three weeks from today. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR,JUDGE. MS
