SRI.B.KRISHNA MANI RESPONDENT(S): --------------- THE SECRETARY, KUMBALAM GRAMA PANCHAYATH, PANANGAD.P.O, ERNAKULAM - 687 506. THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 25/03/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C.) No.10148 of 2010 (P) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 25th day of March, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner submits that in terms of Exts.P3 to P6 permits, he constructed four buildings. It is stated that the buildings have been assessed and building tax has been levied. However, the buildings have not been numbered so far. It is stated that application in this behalf was submitted by the petitioner as early as on 13/08/2009. The learned counsel also tells me that Ext.P13 is the receipt issued by the Panchayat acknowledging the filing of the application. If as stated by the petitioner, he has submitted an application on 13/08/2009 requesting the Panchayat to assign building numbers, there is no reason why the Panchayat should not consider the application. Since according to the petitioner, application has not been considered, I direct the respondent Panchayat to consider the application filed by the petitioner on 13/08/2009, and pass orders thereon. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at WP(C) No.10148/2010 -2- any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
