THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
02.03.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
2
W.P.(C) No. 5138 of 2022
JUDGMENT
Dated this the 2nd day of March, 2022.
The petitioner has approached this Court asserting
that a suo motu proceedings, bearing S.M.No.1292 of
2020, has been initiated against him by the 1 st
respondent - Special Tahsildar (Land Revenue) seeks that
the same be directed to be disposed of within a time
frame to be fixed by this Court.
2. In response, the learned Special Government
Pleader, Smt.Mable C Kurian, submitted that the afore
mentioned suo motu proceedings was initiated against
the petitioner only recently and therefore, that this writ
petition is premature.
3. Even though this Court normally fixes 18 months
time to complete proceeding, I am of the view that in this
case it will be justified to expand it to 24 months since
W.P.(C) No. 5138 of 2022
the application of the petitioner has been made only a
month ago.
Resultantly, this writ petition is ordered, directing
the 1st respondent to complete proceedings in
S.M.No.1292 of 2020, after following due procedure and
after affording necessary opportunity of being heard to
the petitioner - as also any other interested person - as
expeditiously as is possible, but not later than 24 months
from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this
judgment.
