The Division bench comprising Justice A.Muhamed Mustaque and Justice S Manu disposed of the petition based on the assurance given by the state government.
The plea was filed with the apprehension that the vacancy in the State Real Estate Appellate Tribunal would be inconvenient to the litigants and the public. It was stated that V K Babu Prakash, the judicial member of the State Real Estate Appellate Tribunal, is to vacate his office on May 28, 2024, and a vacancy would arise.
The plea further alleged that the government might not take any steps to make appointments due to the prevailing Parliamentary Elections and Model Code Of Conduct. The petitioner thus sought for directions from the Court for making an appointment to the post of judicial member in the State Real Estate Appellate Tribunal without delay.
The State Real Estate Appellate Tribunal is a quasi-judicial body established under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016. The tribunal is responsible for hearing appeals against the decisions of the Real Estate Regulatory Authority.
Social Justice Vigilance Forum is a registered society under the Travancore Cochin Literary, Scientific and Charitable Societies Registration Act, 1955.
