2. The case of the petitioner is that the respondents have come forward to provide a concrete house under KALAIGNAR HOUSING SCHEME (2010 - 2016). On the instruction of the fourth respondent, on 21/6/2021, the petitioner had demolished his hut. Thereafter, the respondents have not come forward to provide concrete house to the petitioner, instead they have provided to various persons who are already having houses. Hence, the petitioner had submitted a representation, dated 18/4/2022, to the first respondent. Since the same has not been answered, so far, petitioner has come forward with the present writ petition praying for the relief, as stated therein.

3. Heard Mr.M.Rajkumar, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, Mr.S.Rajesh, learned Government Advocate for the respondents 1 to 3 and Mrs.V.Yamunadevi, learned Special Government Pleader for the fourth respondent.

5. Considering the submission of the learned Special Government Pleader, this writ petition is disposed of. The fourth respondent is directed to expedite the process in allotting the house, as expeditiously as possible. No costs.
