O R D E R

The petitioner is before this Court, seeking a direction to the respondent to issue patta in his name, with regard to his property in Survey No.168/27 in Palanangudi Village, Thiruverumbur Taluk, Trichy District and according to him, neither civil suit nor rival claim whatsoever is pending in respect of the said property.

2. Heard both sides.

3. When the matter is taken up hearing today, the learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that it would be suffice, if the representation of the petitioner dated 12.04.2013 is disposed of, by the respondent, as per law, within a stipulated time limit.

4. It is seen that the petitioner has submitted his representation seeking patta in the year 2013 and it is not known whether such a claim still subsists due to passage of time.

5. Under such circumstances and also considering the limited scope of the relief sought for, this Court, without going into the merits of the petitioner's claim, directs the respondent to https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
