3. According to the petitioner, his father by name Manivannan, died on 05.06.2019. Thereafter, the petitioner made a representation on 08.06.2019, seeking for issuance of legal heirship certificate for his deceased father. The grievance of the petitioner before this Court is that the said representation has not been considered by the respondents so far. Hence, the present writ petition is filed.

Thus, this Writ Petition is disposed of, only with a direction to the second respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 08.06.2019 and pass orders on the same on merits and in accordance with law, after conducting due enquiry and hearing all the parties. Such exercise shall be done by the second respondent within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs.
