T.K. SUNDARESAN Vs. STATE OF KERALA

JUDGEMENT

(1.) AGGRIEVED by the non -consideration of the petitioner's application for building permit on the ground that the property is included in the Punalur Town DTP Scheme for KSRTC Bus Stand framed in the year 1983, the petitioner has come up before this Court.

(2.) THE petitioner purchased an extent of 11.33 ares of land in Sy.Nos.378/4 and 378/2/12 of Punalur Village within the limits of the respondent Municipality. He applied for a building permit to construct a commercial building in the said property. However, the 3rd respondent issued Ext.P5 communication stating that the property of the petitioner is included in the DTP Scheme for KSRTC; and hence, the application cannot be considered. It is with this background, the petitioner has come up before this Court.

(3.) THE learned counsel for the petitioner invited my attention to Exts.P3 and P4 judgments of this Court, wherein this Court considered the identically placed cases and directed the concerned respondent to consider the application without reference to the DTP Scheme.
