The petitioner's contention is that the petitioner has already obtained permission from the Revenue Divisional Officer for filling up the land. Whatever be the contentions of the petitioner, I am of opinion that the proper remedy of the petitioner lies in filing an appeal against Ext.P5 order as provided under the Kerala Municipality Act. Therefore, without prejudice to that right, this writ petition is dismissed. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge
