J.Nasiruthin v. The Registrar (Administration)

ORDER The above Writ Petition has been for the following reliefs:- "to direct the respondent to dispose of the petitioner's representation dated 12.01.2026"

¶2Brief Facts;-

¶3The petitioners' case is that, in the year 1952, the 1st petitioner's grandfather was permitted by the respondent college to occupy a small portion of the college premises for the purpose of carrying on the business of tailoring. At that time, the 1st petitioner's grandfather paid a sum of Rs. 30/- as a deposit Page3 of 5 for running the shop. After the demise of his grandfather, the petitioners' father occupied the said premises and continued the tailoring business under the name and style of M/s. JAMAL TAILORING. Petitioners 2 to 4 are similarly placed persons who have been running their respective shops in the respondent college campus for several years.

¶4The grievance of the petitioners is that, all of a sudden, on 15.12.2025, without issuing any prior notice or affording them an opportunity of hearing to put forth their case, the respondent had demolished the petitioners' shops and removed all the valuable articles therefrom. Aggrieved by the said illegal act of the respondent, the petitioners had submitted a representation dated 12.01.2026 seeking allotment of an alternate place/room in the same premises to enable them to run their shops and earn their livelihood. However, the said representation has not been considered to date. Hence, the present Writ Petition.

¶5Heard the learned counsel on either side.

¶6Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the respondent is directed to consider and pass orders on the petitioners' representation dated Page4 of 5

12.01.2026 on merits and in accordance with law within a period of 4 weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

¶7Accordingly, the Writ Petition stands allowed. No costs. 25-02-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order SHR To THE REGISTRAR (Administration) Guindy,Chennai-600 025. WPoNo.o6045oofo2026 P.T.ASHAoJ. SHR WPoNo.o6045oofo2026 AND WMPoNO.o6555oOFo2026 25-02-2026 (1/2) Page5oofo5
