(Made by Dr.Vineet Kothari,J)
The petitioner has made a prayer in the present case that the
respondent State has not provided the relief in terms of Section 12 of the
Disaster Management Act, 2005.
Learned Government Pleader however submitted that the petition
has been fled without making proper research in the matter and the State
has issued various relief packages for the beneft of the afected persons.
In these circumstances, we direct the petitioner to approach the
second respondent Tamil Nadu State Disaster Management Authority
through its Commissioner, Commissionerate of Revenue and Disaster
Management, to make a representation to him ascertaining the details of
the relief packages announced by the State Government in the matter,
and upon obtaining the information, if the petitioner feels that the
guidelines under Section 12 of the aforesaid Act are not satisfed, he can
fle an affdavit to that efect in the matter and then argue the case.
List the matter after four weeks.
