ORDER

By consent, this writ petition is taken up for final disposal.

The petitioner is an Advocate by profession and he is a resident of Radha Nagar Main Road, Chrompet, Chennai 600

044. The grievance expressed by the petitioner is that though the under by-pass road has been constructed near his residence, the approach road is yet to be put on place and very many personal representations, nothing has fructified. The petitioner, in this regard, has submitted a representation on 07.03.2016 to the respondents and despite the receipt and acknowledgment of the same on 08.03.2016, no orders have been passed and hence, the petitioner came forward to file the present writ petition.
