K.Shanmugasundaram v. The Director

O R D E R [Order of the Court was made by R.SUBRAMANIAN, J.] Prayer in this writ petition reads as follows: "For the reasons stated in the accompanying affidavit, It is therefore prayed that this Hon'ble court may be pleased to issue WRIT OF MANDAMUS or other direction in the nature of Writ directing the Respondents 1 to 4 to implement the proceeding in Na.Ka.No. 1046/2016/Mathi.5 dated 24.08.2016 under the provision of Tamilnadu Town Planning Act, 1971 passed by the fourth respondent within stipulated time by this Hon'ble Court and to pass such other further orders as this Hon'ble Court deemed to be fit and proper in this circumstances of the case and thus render justice."

¶2Though the prayer is sought to be opposed on various grounds, we find that the said opposition can not be entertained. Once there is a proceeding validly passed, it is for the authority concerned to implement the same, unless there is any other prohibitory order passed. It is now stated that an application for approval of revised plan has been filed and the same is pending.

¶3The authority concerned will consider the same also along with the representation to implement the order passed on 24.08.2016 and if the application is rejected, they can go ahead and implement the order dated

24.08.2016.

¶4The writ petition is disposed of with the above direction. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
