petitioner and Mr.D.Ravichander, learned Special Government Pleader

appearing on behalf of respondents 1 to 4 and 7.

3.In the considered view of this Court, the proceedings that have been put

to challenge by the petitioner pertains to proceedings dated 30.08.2017. There is

absolutely no explanation on the part of the petitioner as to why it took the

petitioner such a long time to approach this Court and file a writ petition. Apart

from that, this Court also finds that the brother of the petitioner had already

approached the Civil Court and filed a suit in O.S.No.300/2017 and this suit was

dismissed by the District Munsif Court, Perambalur by Judgment and Decree

dated 27.06.2023. After having lost that round of litigation before the Civil

Court, a fresh attempt is now being made to file a writ petition before this Court

and seek for a similar relief.

4.There are absolutely no merits in this writ petition and accordingly, this

writ petition stands dismissed. No Costs.
