MR.C.Johnson, learned Standing Counsel accepts notice on behalf of the 1st respondent and Mr.V.C.Selvasekaran, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents 2 and 3.
2 The grievance expressed by the petitioner is that by virtue of the Deed of registered Settlement bearing Doc.No.3318 of 2006 dated 23.08.2006 and the Deed of Release bearing Doc.No.1367 of 2015 dated 06.04.2015 registered on the file of the Sub-Registrar, Kumbakonam, the petitioner became the absolute owner of the property in respect of the 1st floor and the ground floor was settled in favour of the 4th respondent - his brother and life interest was granted to his mother. The Petitioner would further aver that his brother namely the 4th respondent herein, without obtaining any Planning Permission, unauthorizedly started putting up additional construction. The petitioner in this regard, has also approached the Zonal Officer - IX of Greater Corporation of Chennai, by invoking the provisions of the Right to Information Act, 2005 and obtained information that the 2nd floor has been constructed unauthorizedly and Stop Up Notice has also been issued and the 4th respondent has also been called upon to submit the approved plan and thereafter, no action has been taken and the 4th respondent is continuing with the construction and therefore, prays for appropriate orders.
4 Heard the submissions of the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner ; Mr.C.Johnson, learned counsel appearing for 1st respondent and Mr.V.C.Selvasekaran, learned counsel appearing for 2nd and 3rd respondents.
5 The learned counsel appearing for Respondents 2 and 3 would submit that further action in pursuant to the Stop Up Notice as well as the notice calling upon the 4th respondent to produce the approved plan, would be taken after putting the 4th respondent on notice and appropriate orders will be passed very soon.
6 Though the petitioner has prayed for a larger relief, this Court, in the light of the above facts and circumstances and without going into the merits of the claim projected by the petitioner either in his representation or in the affidavit, directs the 3rd respondent to put the 4th respondent on notice and take appropriate action on the representation dated 21.04.2017 submitted by the petitioner on merits and in accordance with law and pass appropriate orders within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and communicate the decision taken, to the petitioner as well as to the 4th respondent.
