*** SUVIR SEHGAL, J.(Oral) 1.

Prayer made in the writ petition is two fold. Firstly, petitioner has stated that an application for land pooling has been submitted through receipt No.2125 dated 22.04.2013, which is not being decided by the respondents. Upon instructions from Mr. Amit Siwach, ADA, HSVP, Jhajjar, State counsel submits that under rehabilitation policy dated 10.09.2012, an application for land pooling had to be made within a period of 60 days. He submits that as an application (Annexure P-2) was submitted by the petitioner after the expiry of prescribed period, it cannot be considered.

Be that as it may, since an application filed by the petitioner is pending, competent authority is directed to pass an appropriate order thereon within a period of four months from the date of receipt of the certified copy of VANITA 2026.03.20 11:10 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this order and judgment
