THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30/09/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.M.JOSEPH, J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - WP.(C) No.29016 of 2008 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 30th day of September, 2008 JUDGMENT Petitioners challenge Ext.P2. Ext.P2 is an order of the Magistrate granting permission to draw the line for giving connection to the fourth respondent. 2. I heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Standing Counsel. 3. A perusal of the order would show that the alternate proposal, apparently proposed by the petitioners, has been referred to by the Magistrate and it is found on a perusal of the report that the first proposal is the most feasible. 4. Learned Standing Counsel would submit that in fact the approved proposal involves drawing of the line through a two feet pathway and there will be no cutting of any trees and what is involved is the cutting of the two big branches of two rubber trees each belonging to the first petitioner and the second petitioner. I record this submission of the learned Standing Counsel and I feel that I need not interfere with Ext.P2 order. Accordingly recording the submission of the learned Standing Counsel, the writ petition is dismissed. (K.M. JOSEPH, JUDGE) sb
