JUDGMENT
Dated this the 13th day of March, 2023
Petitioner is the owner in possession of 4.05 Ares of
land in Survey No.416/9-2-2-2 of Asamannoor Village in
Kunnathunadu Taluk of Ernakulam District. Petitioner confines
her relief for an expeditious consideration of Exts.P6 and 7
applications in Form Nos.5 and 6 respectively under the Kerala
Conservation of Paddy land and Wetland Act, 2008, seeking
deletion of entry relating to the subject property from the data
bank and seeking permission for use of land for other purposes.
According to the petitioner, the property is a purayidom 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 1 st respondent to initially
consider Form No.5 application, after obtaining and verifying the
relevant materials and reports from the Agricultural Officer. If
orders are passed excluding the property from the data bank,
then, Form No.6 application shall also be taken up for
consideration and appropriate orders shall be passed thereon
after considering all relevant aspects of the matter. Entire
proceedings shall be completed within a period of three months
from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The RDO shall
consider all relevant matters and shall obtain reports from the
concerned Village Officer as well.
This writ petition is ordered accordingly.
