The petitioner seeks for a direction to the respondent to issue the legal heirs Certificate to him by considering his application dated 05.04.2016 and representation dated 08.06.2017. 2.Mr.C.Selvaraj, learned Special Government Pleader takes notice for the respondent. By consent, this Writ Petition is taken up for final disposal at the admission stage itself. 3.Mr.D.Balamurugapandi, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner is son of Poochi. The petitioner's father passed away and thereafter, he submitted an application to issue legal heirs certificate on 05.04.2016. Since no action was taken, he sent a representation on 08.06.2017. Even thereafter, no action has been taken. Hence, the present writ petition.

4.The learned counsel would further submit that though the petitioner has sought for legal heirs certificate for his forefather, it would suffice if a direction is issued to the respondent to issue the legal heirs certificate to the petitioner's father, namely, Poochi alone.
