O R D E R
The petitioner has come up with this Writ Petition seeking a direction to the respondents to consider his representation dated 29.11.2016.
2.
According to the petitioner, in the eastern part of his agricultural land in Old Survey No.394/1A, there is feed (odai) in the direction of southern north (thenvadal) and while sub-
dividing the said land, the 3rd respondent had wrongly measured from the starting point of his land across the feed in the eastern side of his land located at 5/5 A junction in the field map. The measurement of the old and new sub-division is wrongly mentioned as 14.2 meters, which the petitioner came to know only after the Surveyor surveyed his land on 19.11.2016. 3.
The case of the petitioner is that the respondents did not give any notice to him in this regard and hence, he made a representation to the respondents on 29.11.2016 requesting the respondents to rectify the measurement differences in the old and new survey of the Town and Country Planning Authority. Thereafter, the 3rd respondent directed the 2nd respondent to take appropriate action on the petitioner's representation. Since no action is taken so far, the petitioner has come up with the present Writ Petition.
Heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the material documents available on record.
5.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court directs the respondents to consider the petitioner's representation dated 29.11.2016 on merits and in accordance with law and pass appropriate orders, as expeditiously as possible. The Writ petition is disposed of with the above direction. No costs.
