JUDGMENT
Dated this the 11th day of January, 2022
The petitioners, who belong to Scheduled Tribe
Community in Kuttichal, Thiruvananthapuram District, have
approached this Court seeking to direct the 1st respondent
to dispose of Ext.P1 complaint as expeditiously as possible
in a time bound manner.
2. The petitioner would state that since 2014, their
family is suffering various atrocities in the locality. A
neighbour of the petitioners has constructed a road,
compound wall and concrete house with the assistance of
Panchayat and Police Officials, illegally. They have even
drawn electricity line through the petitioners' property
forcefully. The petitioners therefore filed Ext.P1 complaint
before the 1st respondent. The 1st respondent has not WP(C)No.30863/2021
passed final orders on the petitioners' complaint. The
petitioners are therefore before this Court.
3. The learned Standing Counsel representing the
1st respondent submitted that if the petitioners are co-
operating with the proceedings pending before the 1 st
respondent, the proceedings can be concluded within a
period of three months.
In the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ
petition is disposed of directing the petitioners to co-operate
with Ext.P1 proceedings pending before the 1 st respondent
and directing the 1st respondent to conclude the
proceedings as expeditiously as possible and at any rate,
within a period of three months.
