ORDER

¶15

(Order of the Court was made by M.M.SUNDRESH,J.)

¶16

The petitioner, claiming to be a social worker, has filed the above public interest litigation seeking to consider the representation dated 24.09.2017 on the premise that the respondent No.5 is going on with the construction of the multistorey building without even planning permission either from the respondent No.2 or the respondent No.3, as the case may be.

¶17

The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that the communication sent by the respondent No.3 would show that no approval has been obtained by the respondent No.5. Though a representation has been given to the respondent No.3 on 24.07.2017 seeking appropriate direction, there is no progress. Therefore, a direction will have to be issued to the respondent No.3 to look into the representation of the petitioner.

¶18

Considering the submission made, particularly, by taking note of the communication sent by the respondent No.3 dated 13.09.2017 coupled with the fact that the representation dated 24.09.2017 is pending consideration, a direction is issued to respondent No.3 to pass appropriate orders on the said representation of the petitioner within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, after giving notice to the petitioner and the respondent No.5.

¶19

The writ petition stands disposed of accordingly. No costs.
