JUDGMENT
The grievance of the petitioner is
that even as his application, seeking
instalment facility in the matter of
remitting the property tax arrears due in
respect of the building bearing door
No.VII/353A of the Kodikulam Grama
Panchayat, is pending before the panchayat,
the panchayat is initiating coercive steps
for recovering the amount in a lump. The
petitioner has already filed Ext.P2 before
the Secretary of the Panchayat, in which he
prays for permission to pay the principal
amount in 10 equal monthly instalments. He
also seeks exoneration from the obligation
to pay penal interest on certain reasons
stated in the application.
2. The panchayat will consider Ext.P2
bestowing as much sympathatically as it
W.P.(C) No.11749 2007
:: 2 ::
deserves and take an early decision. A
decision on Ext.P2 will be taken at the
earliest, at any rate within four months from
the date of receipt of a copy of this
judgment, on condition that the petitioner
remits a sum of Rs.6,123/- within two weeks
from today.
Writ petition is disposed of
accordingly.
