Brief Description on Grievance: Respected Sir/Madam, I am writing to address the current situation regarding the Kamalam Complex situated at Poothadi Panchayat, Irulam village, Vakeri town. I have diligently followed all regulations, acquiring the necessary building permits (No. 2705/P/15-16) from the Panchayat to erect the structure. The ground floor, allocated for shops with Panchayath numbers PP12-517 A to F, and the structural work of the first floor, were completed within the specified timeline outlined in the permit. I took the initiative to renew the permit on 13.11.2019, bearing reference SC3-10231/19, ensuring compliance and continuity of the project. However, the permit's validity extended only until 31.3.2022, prompting me to reapply for renewal. The intention behind this renewal was pivotal, particularly as the Kerala Grameen Bank selected my establishment to house its branch on the first floor of the Kamalam building. Subsequently, I submitted a revised plan, accommodating minor modifications as per the bank's requisites. Regrettably, despite addressing and clearing objections raised by the Panchayath Secretary (NO:401007/BPMC01/GPO/2023/7163(1) Dated 9.10.23), an unforeseen hurdle emerged. During my father's visit to the Panchayath office to inquire about the status post the objection resolution, we discovered that the Assistant Engineer verbally recommended to the Panchayat against granting permission due to the ground floor mill, operated by Aysha C.H, allegedly lacking license renewal. Upon Aysha C.H's subsequent attempt to renew the license, along with the requisite pollution certificate, their application was dismissed on technical grounds citing a ceiling height discrepancy. The mentioned ground floor's ceiling was purportedly measured at 10 ft, whereas a 12 ft clearance is mandated for the mill's operations. This abrupt discrepancy surprised us, given that the mill is functioning for last six years with Panchayat-granted permission. Their investment in machinery and infrastructure aligning with the Panchayat's consent underscores their predicament in swiftly vacating the premises. Any potential notice from the Panchayat could lead to a legal impasse, adversely impacting the progress of the entire project, which I, as the building owner, cannot control or not responsible. I implore your urgent intervention to facilitate clearance for the first-floor modification work promptly, without undue delay owing to the mill's circumstances. Per the agreement with the bank, I am bound to conclude the modification work and hand over the first floor by March 24th. Your timely assistance in resolving this matter would be immensely appreciated and pivotal for the seamless continuation of this significant project. Thank you for your attention and understanding. Yours faithfully, Saritha O T Swapna Meenangadi
