2. This writ petition is filed challenging Ext.P20. When this Writ Petition came up for consideration, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner will be satisfied if a direction is issued to the Panchayat to consider Ext.P21. I think that prayer can be allowed.

Therefore, this Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the

2^nd respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders in Ext.P21, after affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment.
