It is alleged that the said order was passed without notice to the petitioner and urging this grievance, petitioner has filed Ext.P5 application before the 2nd respondent, seeking reconsideration of Ext.P4 order of blacklisting. 2. Since one of the reasons stated in Ext.P4 is that there was an attempt to cause physical harm to the Tahsildar concerned, I am not inclined to stay Ext.P4, at this stage. 3. In the circumstances of this case, the appropriate course to be adopted is to direct the 2nd respondent, District Collector to take up, consider and pass orders on Ext.P5 which has been filed by the petitioner. 4. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the 2nd respondent shall take up, consider and pass orders on WPC No. 13256 OF 2008 2 Ext.P5. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 2nd respondent for compliance. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE ttb WPC No. 13256 OF 2008 3 WPC No. 13256 OF 2008 4
