JUDGMENT

The petitioner challenging Ext.P1 & P2 notice preferred an appeal before the 2nd respondent under Rule 49 of Kerala Minor Minerals Concession rules, 1967. The only limited prayer before this Court is that early disposal of Ext.P3 statutory appeal.

2. Considering the above, there shall be a direction to the respondents to dispose an appeal within three months after issuing notice to the petitioner. Till the disposal of the appeal, the recovery proceedings shall be deferred. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. Sd/- A. MUHAMED MUSTAQUE, JUDGE bpr
