The petitioner has approached this Court complaining about the illegal quarrying operation done by the respondents 3 to 5 and for a direction to respondents 1, 2 and 6 to initiate steps to stop the illegal activities in the property comprised in Resurvey No. 151/10 of Kottakkal Village. 2. The party respondent submits that he had an intention to carry on the quarrying operation, but as matters stand now, he does not have the licence to do so. That apart, he had applied for the permission for constructing a building in the said property which was allowed by Ext.R5(e) permit. It is submitted by learned counsel appearing for the local authority that no licence has been granted for any quarrying in the said land.
3. Having regard to the aforesaid factual situation, it is clear that the party respondent does not have any right to carry on any quarrying in the property in question.
Accordingly, this writ petition is allowed directing the W.P.C.No.11640 OF 2013 2 respondent authorities to ensure that the party respondent does not conduct any quarrying operation in the land without proper permission from the statutory authorities.
