JUDGMENT

The petitioner, who is the owner of a property covered by Exts.P1 and P2 Sale Deeds, with intent to construct a residential building filed Ext.P3 application before the third respondent/Local Level Monitoring Committee for reclaiming the requisite extent of land. After considering the same, the District Level Authorised Committee rejected the application as per Ext.P8 order, which was subjected to challenge by filing W.P.(C) No.24751 of 2012. The said writ petition was disposed of by Ext.P9 judgment relegating the petitioner to avail the statutory remedy by way of appeal before the second respondent. It was accordingly that Ext.P10 appeal was preferred before the second respondent , who considered the same and it was rejected as per Ext.P12 order, which in turn is under challenge in this writ petition.

2. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that by virtue of the mandate under Section 9(7) of the Act 28 of 2008, Ext.P12 order passed by the District Collector is final and hence this writ petition.

3. The learned Government Pleader points out that the idea and understanding of the petitioner is quite wrong and W.P.(C)No. 24108 OF20132 misconceived and that statutory remedy by way of 'Revision' under Section 28 of the Act is still available to the petitioner, which does not exclude the order passed by the District Collector under Section 9(7) of the Act.

4. In the said circumstance, the petitioner is relegated to approach the first respondent by way of Revision Petition under Section 28 of the Act. If any such petition is filed within 'two weeks' from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment, the same shall be considered and appropriate orders shall be passed in accordance with law, after hearing the petitioner, at the earliest, at any rate, within 'three months' from the date of filing of the Revision Petition. The petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the first respondent for further steps. The writ petition is disposed of.
