JUDGMENT

¶50

The petitioners claim to be head load workers of Pazhinjikuzhi area in Perinkadavila Village. They submit that they have submitted applications for registration under Rule 26 A of Kerala Headload Workers Act and those applications have been registered by the 2^nd respondent, as evidenced from Ext.P1. Petitioners' contention is that their applications have not been considered and orders passed yet. The respondents 3 to 5 submit that the petitioners are not employed as headload workers of the area and they are not eligible for registration. That is a matter which the 1^st respondent has to consider while passing orders on applications submitted by the petitioners for registration. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with the following directions:

¶51

The 1^st respondent shall consider and pass orders on the applications submitted by the petitioners registered as per

¶52

W.P.(C) No. 3115/2008/U -2-

¶53

Ext.P1 and pass orders thereon as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The respondents 3 to 5 shall also be heard in the

¶54

matter before passing orders.
