Haridasan v. the Thrikkadeeri Grma Panchayath
Case brief
What is this about?
The Kerala High Court held that the Panchayat lacked authority to reject the petitioner's building permit sua sponte. The Court directed the District Level Authorized Committee to decide the matter within one month. The Panchayat's communication regarding alternative land was treated merely as information, not a rejection order.
What did the court decide?
The 3rd respondent directed to take a decision within one month treating the Panchayat's communication as information only, which the grant of building permit ultimately depends upon.
