JUDGMENT
The petitioner is stated to be the owner of 4.688 Acres of land comprised in Re-Survey No.354/1A in the Perumanna Village in Tirur Taluk. He has approached this Court in this writ petition seeking a writ of mandamus commanding the 1st respondent to dispose of SM No.671 of 2014 within a reasonable time limit.
2. I heard the arguments of the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents.
3. Considering the fact that SM No.671 of 2014 is pending consideration before the 1st respondent, this writ petition is disposed of directing the said respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment.
It is made clear that this Court has not expressed anything
W.P.(C) No.24934/2015 on the merits of the claim made by the petitioner and it is for the 1st respondent to take an appropriate decision in the matter strictly in accordance with law.
