Petitioner submits that the road in front of his residential
property has been relaid recently as a result of which, there has
been increase in the road level. Consequently, the rain water gets
collected in his compound. It is stated that though the Municipality
has promised to construct a drainage to avoid this, there has not
been any action on its part. Complaining of this, the petitioner’s
son has filed Ext. P1 before the 2nd respondent and in this writ
petition it is alleged that there has not been any response to Ext. P1
either.
2. I heard the Standing Counsel for the Municipality also.
3. Having regard to the submissions made before me as
above, I feel that it is a matter which should, at least at the first
instance, engage the attention of the respondents. Since Ext. P1 is
pending before the 2nd respondent, I direct the 2nd respondent to
take note of Ext. P1, consider the same and pass appropriate orders

thereon as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 2 weeks of

4. Writ petition is disposed of as above.
Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 2nd
respondent for compliance.
