Dated this the 1st day of July, 2021
The petitioner is the decree holder in LAR No. 151 of 2019 of
the Court of Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement
Authority, Alappuzha. The petitioner has sought to realize the
amount due under the decree by filing EP No. 248 of 2020. The
prayer in this original petition is for a direction to the Authority to
consider and pass orders on the execution petition expeditiously.
In the report called for by this Court, the Authority has stated as
under:-
"The decree holder in LAR 151/19 on the file of this
authority had filed EP 248 /20 on 17.7.2020. Along with the EP,
she had filed EA 96/20 for attachment of two vehicles owned by
State of Kerala(JDI). Notice was ordered in both petitions and
the petitions were posted to 05.10.20 for return of notice. But
due to the restrictions imposed following the spread of COVID-
19, the petitions were not called in open Court and were
notified to 14.12.2020, 15.02.2021,21.04.2021 and 15.06.2021.

2.The learned Authority has also stated that earnest efforts
will be taken to the dispose the EP within six months.

No.151 of 2019 within six months of receipt of a copy of this
