                 =====================

        Dated this the 28th day of September, 2010

                          J U D G M E N T

The challenge in this writ petition is against Ext.P2 final

order passed by the District Collector exercising his powers under

the Kerala Protection of River Banks and Regulation of Removal of

Sand Act, 2001. The only contention raised by the learned

counsel for the petitioner is that the value of the vehicle has been

fixed by the District Collector and not by an expert of the Motor

Vehicles Department. This contention of the learned counsel is

plainly untenable, as it is evident from Ext.P2 order itself that the

value of the vehicle has been fixed by the Joint Regional Transport

Officer vide his communication dated 11/3/2010, which is

reference No.2 in the order.

Writ petition therefore is only to be dismissed and I do so.

ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE
