He further submits that the petitioner has already submitted an application/representation before the Tahsildar, Masturi (Pachpedi), District- Bilaspur (C.G.) which is still pending consideration. It is, therefore, prayed that an appropriate direction may be issued to the concerned Tahsildar to consider and decide the pending application/representation submitted by the petitioner within a specified time in accordance with law.
