JUDGMENT
Dated this the 7th day of April, 2022
Petitioner is the owner in possession of a total
extent of 6.79 Ares of land in Survey No. 90/14A-8 of
Edappally South Village in Kanayannur Taluk of
Ernakulam District. The petitioner confines his relief for
an expeditious consideration of Ext.P6 application in
Form No.5 under the provisions of the Kerala
Conservation of Paddy land and Wetland Act, 2008,
seeking deletion of entry relating to the subject property
from the data bank. According to the petitioner, the
property is converted land and has been erroneously
included in the data bank.
2. Having heard the learned Government Pleader
also and without expressing any view on the merits of
the matter, this writ petition is disposed of directing the
3rd respondent to consider Ext.P6 application (Form
No.5), after obtaining all necessary inputs including the
report of the Agricultural Officer and to pass appropriate WP(C) NO.13071 OF 2022
orders thereon. The entire proceedings shall be
completed within a period of three months from the date
of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner
shall produce the copy of this judgment along with a
copy of the writ petition before the 3 rd respondent for
compliance.
This writ petition is ordered accordingly.
