                         JUDGMENT

The petitioner claims to be the owner in possession of 3.15 Ares of property comprised in Re-Survey No.157/6. Ext.P1 is the title deed. The petitioner submitted Ext.P4 application before the respondent No.3 to demarcate his property and also to provide re-

survey sub division. The limited prayer in this writ petition is to give a direction to the respondent No.3 to demarcate and provide re-

survey sub division to his property as requested in Ext.P4.

Having heard Sri.Jolly John, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Smt.Vidya Kuriakose, the learned Government Pleader, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent No.3 to act upon Ext.P4 application, in accordance with law, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. It is made clear that, before conducting measurement and demarcation, the respondent No.3 shall issue notice to the petitioner as well as the affected parties.
