The court affirmed the necessity for timely action on pending representations in accordance with jurisdictional authority.

JUDGMENT

This Writ Petition (C) is filed seeking the following reliefs:

" i. To Issue a writ of mandamus directing the 3^rd respondent to consider Exhibit.P1 within a time frame fixed by this Hon’ble Court."

[SIC]

2. Petitioner submitted Ext.P1 representation before the

3^rd respondent requesting permission to remove the remaining sand outside the property. The Government Pleader submitted that the Revenue Divisional Officer has no power to consider such a representation. I do not want to make any observation. Since Ext.P1 representation is pending before the 3^rd respondent, there can be a direction to the 3^rd respondent to do the needful in accordance with the law. If the 3^rd respondent has no jurisdiction to entertain Ext.P1, the 3^rd respondent will inform the same to the petitioner, and the 3^rd respondent will also inform the petitioner about the proper authority to whom he has to approach.

Therefore, this Writ Petition is disposed of with the following directions:

1. The 3^rd respondent is directed to consider Ext.P1 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

2. Petitioner will produce a certified copy of the judgment along with the copy of this writ petition with exhibits before the 3^rd respondent for compliance.
