JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA Present: Mr. Mohit Jaggi, Advocate for the petitioner. KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (ORAL) Present petition has been filed under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India praying for issuance of direction to the respondents to allot a plot of land to the petitioner in terms of rehabilitation policy decision dated 1st June, 2001 (Annexure P-3). Counsel for the petitioner prays that petitioner will be satisfied in case legal notice (Annexure P-8) is treated as representation and the same is decided by respondent No.3 within a reasonable time. I find merit in the contention raised by counsel for the petitioner. Accordingly, respondent No.3 is directed to treat legal notice (Annexure P-8) as a representation of the petitioner and take a conscious decision thereupon by passing a well reasoned order, within three months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. Order shall be communicated to the petitioner so that he is able to take legal remedy, in accordance with the provisions of law. With these observations, present petition is disposed of.
