Maruthanayagam.P v. The District Collector

ORDER Heard both sides.

¶2The petitioner challenges the impugned Form – III notice. The specific stand of the third respondent is that the petitioner had committed encroachment on a water channel.

¶3This writ petition stands dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
