O R D E R

Mrs.Geetha Thamaraiselvan, learned Special Government Pleader accepts notice for respondents.

2.

I am of the view that this Writ Petition is misconceived insofar as the application for issuance of legal heir certificate has itself been filed only on 12.01.2022. It is for the petitioner to allow sufficient time to the respondents to process the application, call for the production of documents, if any, and hear the petitioner. In stead of pursuing the application before the authorities, the petitioner has simply rushed to this Court seeking a mandamus.

3. This Writ Petition is thus dismissed as premature. No costs.
