W.P.(C)No.17219 OF 2008

Dated this the 10th day of June, 2008
JUDGMENT
The petitioner styles himself as the State Secretary of an
Organisation named Human Rights Protection Council. He seeks
a direction to the District Collector to consider and pass orders on
Ext.P1. Ext.P1 is stated to be an application under Section 7 of
the Kerala Land Conservancy Act. Section 7 of the Kerala Land
Conservancy Act prescribes punishment for unauthorisedly
occupying land, which is the property of the Government. That
Section does not give any right on the part of the petitioner to
file an application like Ext.P1. The learned counsel for the
petitioner would submit that under Section 16(7), the petitioner
has a right to file Ext.P1. 2. I have heard the learned
Government Pleader also. The right under Section 16(7) is
available to only a person aggrieved by any decision or order
under the Act. Ext.P1 is not against any decision or order under
the Act. Further the petitioner is not aggrieved by any action of
the 2nd respondent. That being so this writ petition is not
maintainable and accordingly the same is dismissed.
