Alleging that the respondents 5 and 6 had been allotted a land on the basis of bogus documents submitted by them, the petitioner has filed this writ petition seeking to cancel the said allotment. 3.

There are no documents filed to substantiate the said complaint. 4. The respondents 3 and 4 had filed a counter affidavit, in which it has been stated that the board had conducted a detailed enquiry and the allotment has been made only on perusing the Aadhar card, original allotment order and ration card. These respondents would also submit that the entire sale consideration has also been paid by respondents 5 and 6 on 30.03.2023, itself. 5. These respondents would further submit that to the written complaint made on 31.07.2023 by the petitioner, the board has also sent a reply on 08.09.2023 to the petitioner. Thereafter, an enquiry had been conducted in which the petitioner and the respondents 5 and 6 were present and documents were also produced during the enquiry. Therefore, in the light of the above, the relief claimed by the petitioner cannot be considered. 4/7 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.24288 of 2025 6. Heard the rival submissions on the either side and perused the records. 7. From a perusal of the records and submissions of the learned counsels on the either side, the complaint appears to be a motivated one and an unsubstantiated one. Therefore, in the absence of any material to buttress the complaint of the petitioner a mandamus cannot be issued to the respondents. That apart, the petitioner’s complaint has already been considered by the respondents. Accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed.
