(Order of the Court was made by DR.ANITA SUMANTH, J.)

Mr.M.Sarangan, learned Additional Government Pleader, reiterates, what we have recorded under order dated 17.10.2025, that R5 is found to be an encroacher, notice has been issued to him and proceedings are ongoing.

2.In light of the same, the prayer for mandamus directing the respondents to take action in respect of the unauthorized construction at old survey No.214/2 in new survey No.214/31 in Melatheru, A.Thekkur, Sivagangai District, stands achieved by directing R4, Block Development Officer, to continue with necessary action in accordance with law as against the alleged encroachment caused by R5. It is made clear that the proceedings must align with the principles of natural justice as well. Both the respondent counsel seek twelve (12) weeks time to conclude the proceedings, which is granted.

3.With this, this writ petition is closed. No costs.
