Chandrasekhar, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Transport, and at their request, the writ petition is taken up for disposal. In this writ petition, the petitioner is aggrieved against the action of the respondents in not considering the application, dated 19.02.2008, filed by him seeking refund of tax of Rs.50,000/-, which was deposited at the time of release of the vehicle bearing Registration No.TN 29 E 6399. Having heard the learned counsel on either side and also on perusal of the entire material on record, we are of the view since the writ petition is filed only against not disposal of the application, dated 19.02.2008, filed by the petitioner, without going into the merits of the matter, it would suffice in the interest of justice to direct the respondents for early disposal of the said application. The Writ Petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to dispose of the application, dated 19.02.2008, which is allegedly filed by the petitioner, within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. _________________ B.PRAKASH RAO, J ___________________ C.Y.SOMAYAJULU, J Dated: 01.05.2008 sj .....
