JUDGMENT

¶24

The petitioner is the owner of the property having an extent of 8.62 Ares comprised in Survey No.89/2-23, 89/2-7 and 89/2-8 of Block No.36 of Nediyirippu Village in Kondotty Taluk. The grievance of the petitioner is that, the said property was wrongly described as 'Nilam' in the revenue records even though the same is not included in the Data Bank. Therefore, an application in Form 6 which is produced as Ext.P1, has been submitted by the petitioner, before the 1^st respondent, and it is now pending consideration since 05.10.2024. The limited prayer sought by the petitioner is to direct the 1^st respondent to pass orders thereon within a time frame.

¶25

After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, I am inclined to dispose of this writ petition. Accordingly it is ordered that, the 2^nd respondent shall forward a report as to the nature of the property of the petitioner, to the 1^st respondent or the authorized officer under
