The G.O.Ms.No.307, dated 06-06-2013 issued by the Government is superceded by G.O.Ms.No.279, dated 04-07-2016 dispensing with the grant of 'No Objection Certificate' (NOC), in case pattas are granted more than 10 years ago. By virtue of said G.O., No NOC is required. As such, no direction can be issued in terms of G.O.Ms.No.307, dated 06-06-2013.

Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. The petitioner has to work out his remedies in terms of G.O.Ms.No.279, dated 04-07-2016. As a sequel to the disposal of this petition, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed.
