Mr.E.Balamurugan, learned Additional Government Pleader takes notice for the respondents. By consent of the parties, this writ petition is taken up for final disposal at the admission stage itself.

2. Heard both sides.

3. The petitioner seeks for a mandamus directing the first respondent to grant Patta in her favour in respect of the property situated at Pondur Village, Sriperumbudur Taluk, Kancheepuram District, bearing Plot Nos.40, 44, 45, 49 and 50 along with 8 cents of vacant land bearing Survey No.70/4B, 70/4C, 76/B, 78/B1 and B2, 79/1, 79/6 part, based on her representation dated 23.09.2017.

4. The grievance of the petitioner before this Court is that the said representation has not been considered so far. This Court, at this stage, is not expressing any view on the merits of the claim made by the petitioner, as it is for the first respondent to consider and decide the same on merits and in accordance with law. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of, only by directing the first respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 23.09.2017 and pass orders on the same on merits and in accordance with law, after hearing rival claimants, if any. Such exercise shall be done by the first respondent within a period of twelve weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs.
