The respondents shall consider the application and pass appropriate orders within two (2) months thereafter for conducting the survey. However, it is needless to 4 mention that the respondents shall issue notices to the effected parties prior to conducting the survey. 6. With this observation, the Writ Petition stands disposed of.
