O R D E R
The relief sought for in the present writ petition is to direct the respondents to dispose of the representation submitted by the petitioner on 01.12.2020.
2. With reference to the relief, the learned Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of the Slum Clearance Board, would submit that the subject tenement in No.108/1 was allotted in favour of one Selvi
R.Vasanthakumari. The said Selvi R.Vasanthakumari was died on 19.11.2014 and she has no legal heirs.
3. The petitioner claims that her mother is the younger sister of the deceased Selvi R.Vasanthakumari, who died unmarried.
4. In view of the fact that the said Selvi R.Vasanthakumariallottee, died without any legal her, the claim of the petitioner was not considered. Thus a direction to consider the representation would do no service to the cause of justice. Since the petitioner has not established any right to claim allotment of tenement from the hands of the Tamil Nadu Slum Clearance Board now renamed as Urban Habitat Development Board.
5. Accordingly, the present writ petition stands dismissed. However, there shall be no order as to costs. 02-02-2024 Index : Yes/No Internet: Yes/No Speaking order/Non-Speaking order Svn
