RAVINDRAN, J.\n                     -------------------------------\n                    W.P.(C) No.22222 of 2009\n                     -------------------------------\n          Dated this the 8th day of December, 2010\n\n                           J U D G M E N T\n<\/pre>\n<p>            The petitioner who is a resident of Nattika Grama<\/p>\n<p>Panchayat has filed this writ petition seeking a direction to the official<\/p>\n<p>respondents to implement Ext.P5 order passed by the Honourable<\/p>\n<p>Ombudsman for Local Self Government Institutions and Ext.P10 order<\/p>\n<p>passed by the Director of Panchayats by evicting the encroachers from<\/p>\n<p>the Chettikkadavu road which is a road vested with the Nattika Grama<\/p>\n<p>Panchayat.    The pleadings disclose that aggrieved by the steps taken<\/p>\n<p>by the Panchayat to evict the encroachers, the seventh respondent<\/p>\n<p>has filed O.S.No.586 of 2010 and 9th respondent has filed O.S.No.1515<\/p>\n<p>of 2001 on the file of the Court of the Munsiff of Chavakkad and that<\/p>\n<p>the said suits are pending. It is also brought to my notice that though<\/p>\n<p>O.S.No.1515 of 2001 was initially decreed ex parte, the ex parte<\/p>\n<p>decree has been set aside by the court below. Apart from respondents<\/p>\n<p>7 and 9, the other party respondents, against whom also steps had<\/p>\n<p>been taken by the Nattika Grama Panchayat to remove the<\/p>\n<p>encroachment, have not challenged the same before this Court or in<\/p>\n<p>other proceedings. It is also not in dispute that the other        party<\/p>\n<p>respondents have already been evicted from the road poramboke. In<\/p>\n<p>such circumstances, no further orders are called for in this writ petition<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C) No.22222 of 2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                      2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>except to direct that if the petitioner is desirous of getting himself<\/p>\n<p>impleaded in the suits filed by respondents 7 and 9, it will be open to<\/p>\n<p>him to move the court below where the suits are pending in that<\/p>\n<p>regard. It is clarified that if in the said suits, interim orders have not<\/p>\n<p>been passed restraining the local authority from evicting the<\/p>\n<p>encroachers, it will be open to the local authority to evict them<\/p>\n<p>notwithstanding the fact that suits are pending. Having regard to the<\/p>\n<p>fact that the suit instituted by the 9th respondent is of the year 2001, I<\/p>\n<p>direct the court below to try and dispose of the suit expeditiously and<\/p>\n<p>in any event, within three months from the date of receipt of a<\/p>\n<p>certified copy of this judgment.\n<\/p>\n<p>              The writ petition is disposed of with the above directions.<\/p>\n<p>                                                P.N.
