                              W.P.(C) No.14027 of 2012
                       =============================================================

                    Dated this the 23rd day of June, 2022

                                          JUDGMENT

The above writ petition is filed with following prayers:

"a) Issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ or order directing respondents 2, 3 and 4 to take effective action on Exhibits P3, P4, P7 reports forthwith.

b) Issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ or order directing the 2nd respondent to act upon Exhibit P6 in accordance with law.

c) Issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ or order directing the 4th respondent to take follow up action on Exhibits P7 and P8.

d) Issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ or order directing the 1st respondent not to carry out any activity without obtaining license from the 2 nd respondent.

e) Be further pleased to issue such other interim orders as are warranted on the facts and circumstances of the case." (sic)

W.P.(C). No. 14027 of 2012

2. The main prayer in the writ petition is to take

effective follow up action based on Exts.P3, P4 and P7 reports.

The grievance of the petitioner is that because of a cattle shed

there is pollution and filth is coming to the property of the

petitioner. As evident by Exts.P3, P4 and P7, the Panchayat and

the Medical Officer concerned already taken steps. If the

pollution as stated in the writ petition and in Exts.P6 and P8 is

even now continuing, the 2nd respondent will take appropriate

steps in accordance to law, after giving notice to the 1 st

respondent.

With the above observation, this writ petition is disposed

of. sd/-
