The petitioner who is desirous of reclaiming a portion of the

property belonging to him for the purpose of constructing a godown is

aggrieved in that the District Collector before whom the matter is now

pending is not taking an early decision.

2. I do not propose to decide on the merits of the petitioner’s

claim to have a favourable decision by the District Collector. But I am

informed that pursuant to the directions of this Court in Ext.P9

judgment, the petitioner in that case who was similarly circumstanced

as the present petitioner could get relief. Accordingly this Writ Petition

will stand disposed of issuing the following directions:-

The District Collector will take up Ext.P2 application and Ext.P8

reminder, consider the same in the light of the recommendations

Exts.P3 to P7 and take a decision at his earliest, after issuing notice to

the petitioner and after hearing him. Decision as directed above will

be taken at any rate by the District Collector within six weeks of

receiving copy of this judgment.
