This writ petition is filed seeking directions to the respondent to

consider Ext.P1 application made for transit passes for removal of

ordinary earth from the property of the petitioner. The petitioner submits

is, therefore, liable to be considered in accordance with law.

2. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, there will be a

direction to the respondent to take up Ext.P1 application submitted by the

petitioner and to consider and pass orders on the same after considering

all relevant aspects of the matter and after conducting due site inspections

and after perusing the relevant documents to be produced by the

petitioner. Appropriate orders shall be passed within a period of two

months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

This writ petition is ordered accordingly.
