Petitioner through the writ petition wants for redressal of his grievance through Annexure-3 by the Collector, Jajpur.

This apart, this Court also finds since the representation claimed to have been submitted on 4.11.2019 , it may not be possible on the part of the Collector, Jajpur to trace such representation and pass appropriate order.
