JUDGMENT

The grievance of the petitioner is that the 2nd respondent has not passed orders on Ext.P4 application for renewal of licence for running a quarry. It is stated that his renewal application has been submitted on 28.04.2015. In view of the limited relief being granted, I do not propose to issue notice to the respondents.

2.Since Ext.P4 application is said to be pending, there will be a direction to the respondents to consider and pass orders on Ext.P4 application, in accordance with law, within a period of three weeks from the date or receipt of a copy of this judgment.

The writ petition is disposed of.
