S.Palanisamy,S/O.Pommanayakkar v. The District Collector

ORDER Heard both sides.

It is further undertaken that in future also no such obstruction will be created or permitted.

¶4Recording the said submission of the learned Additional Government Pleader, this writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
