Mr.T.Muruganantham\n^For Respondents ... Mr.D.Sasikumar\n\t\t     Government Advocate\n\n:ORDER\n<\/pre>\n<p>\tThis writ petition has been filed to direct the respondents to dispose of<br \/>\npetitioner&#8217;s representation dated 27.11.2008.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also Mr.D.Sasikumar,<br \/>\nlearned Government Advocate, who took notice on behalf of the respondents.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t3. The grievance of the petitioner as aired by the learned counsel for the<br \/>\npetitioner placing reliance on the averments in the affidavit accompanying the<br \/>\nwrit petition, is to the effect that despite the petitioner lodged complaint<br \/>\nwith the police concerned, no action has been taken; hence, representation dated<br \/>\n27.11.2008 was given to the respondents, still there was no action. Hence, this<br \/>\nwrit petition.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t4. The learned counsel for the petitioner would come forward with the<br \/>\nsubmission that one Sundararajan fabricated false document as though the<br \/>\npetitioner sold his land in his favour and thereby crabbed his land.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t5. Heard the learned Government Advocate.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t6. At this juncture, my mind is reminiscent and redolent with the judgment<br \/>\nof this Court dated 18.07.2007 in Crl.O.P(MD)No.6616 of 2007, communicated vide<br \/>\ncircular ROC.No.1110B\/07\/F\/MB P.Dis.No.5\/2007, dated 30.07.2007, which was<br \/>\ncirculated to all Magistrates in Tamil Nadu, which would adequately protect the<br \/>\ninterest of the petitioner.  I could recollect fruitfully the decision of the<br \/>\nHon&#8217;ble Apex Court in Sakiri Vasu Vs. State of Uttar Pradesh reported in 2008(2)<br \/>\nSCC 409, which also would posit the aforesaid legal proposition only.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t7. If at all the petitioner is aggrieved by the inaction on the part of<br \/>\nthe police officials in registering a case, it is for him to file necessary<br \/>\napplication under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. before the Magistrate concerned, who is<br \/>\nexpected to act in accordance with law and as per the aforesaid decisions cited<br \/>\nsupra.  As such the petitioner is directed to resort to such a procedure.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t8. With the above said observation and direction, this Writ Petition is<br \/>\ndisposed of.
