JUDGMENT
This writ petition is filed with following prayers:
"(i) Issue a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writs, orders of directions directing the respondents 1 to 3 to finalise proceedings pursuant to Exhibit P3 application as expeditiously as possible.
(ii) Issue a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writs, orders of directions directing the 2 nd and 3rd respondent to fix the fair rent for the building of the petitioner as expeditiously as possible."
2. The grievance of the petitioner is that even though Ext.P3
application is filed for fixation of fair rent, the same is not considered by
the 2nd respondent. The learned counsel submitted that he will be satisfied,
if a direction is issued to the 2 nd respondent to consider Ext.P3 and take
appropriate steps in accordance with law, within a time frame.
3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the
learned Government Pleader for the 2nd respondent.
4. After hearing both sides, I think a direction can be issued to
the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, in accordance
with law.
Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of in the following manner:
(1) The 2nd respondent will consider Ext.P3 and pass
W.P.(C). No. 20117 of 2021
appropriate orders, in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
(2) The petitioner will produce a copy of this writ petition together with a copy of the judgment before the 2nd respondent for necessary compliance.
