JUDGMENT
H.L.DATTU, C.J.
In our opinion, the Writ Petition filed by the petitioner is wholly
premature. Before approaching this Court, petitioner ought to have
filed an appropriate representation before the appropriate authorities
under the provisions of the Kerala Municipalities Act.
2. In that view of the matter, we reject the Writ Petition, for the
present. However, we grant liberty to the petitioner to approach the
appropriate statutory authorities for the reliefs sought for in this Writ
Petition. If such a request is made, the authorities concerned will
consider the same and pass appropriate orders.
Ordered accordingly.
