JUDGMENT
JUSTICE SRI.K.R.UDAYABHANU : PRESIDENT
The appellant is the 1st opposite party/Thrissur Corporation. The order appealed against is the one issued in IA.790/06 in CC.702/06 in the file of CDRF, Thrissur.
2. The order is with respect to the maintainability of the complainant. The complainant had alleged deficiency in service as the portions of the road in front of the house of the complainant has been left untarred by the 2nd respondent/contractor allegedly at the direction of the 1st respondent/appellant.
3. On the other hand the 1st respondent/appellant had contended that the complaint is not maintainable. It is also contended that the matter is pending before the Corporation Council. It is pointed out that the width of the road in front of the house of the complainant is only 3 meters whereas the width of the rest of the road is 5 meters. It is also pointed out that the people of the locality has formed an Action Council and resisted the tarring of the disputed portion of the road as it is not having sufficient width as is having on the remaining portions.
4. The Forum overruled the contention of the 1st opposite party. The above order is challenged in the appeal.
5. At the time of hearing it was submitted by the counsel appearing for the 1st respondent/complainant that tarring work has been executed in the portion of the road in front of the residence of the complainant. In the circumstances we find that the matter is infructuous. Hence the appeal is dismissed as infructuous.
Office will forward the LCR to the Forum along with the copy of this order.
