JUDGMENT
The petitioner is the owner in possession of
23.91 Ares of land in Survey Nos.117/5-4 and 117/7-1 of
Karukutty Village in Aluva Taluk of Ernakulam District. The
petitioner confines his relief for an expeditious
consideration of Ext.P3 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 dry 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
RDO/2nd respondent to consider Ext.P3 application (Form
No.5), after obtaining all necessary inputs including the
report of the Agricultural Officer and to pass appropriate WP(C).No.17044 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 the copy of the writ
petition before the 2nd respondent for compliance.
This writ petition is ordered accordingly.
