        =========================
          Dated this the 30th day of March, 2023

                         JUDGMENT

Petitioner is the owner in possession of 7.66 Ares

and 29.14 Ares of land in Survey Nos.562/6 and 562/6-

2 respectively of Vadakkevila Village in Kollam Taluk of

Kollam District. The petitioner confines his relief for an

expeditious consideration of Exts.P4 and P5 applications

in Form No.5 under 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 a garden

land and has been erroneously included in the data

bank.

2. Having heard the learned Government Pleader WP(C) NO.11271 OF 2023

also and without expressing any view on the merits of

the matter, this writ petition is disposed of directing the

3rd respondent to consider Exts.P4 and P5 applications

(Form No.5), after obtaining all necessary inputs

including the report of the Agricultural Officer and to

pass appropriate 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.

This writ petition is ordered accordingly.
