Full Judgment
(Prayer: Petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, praying for issuance of a Writ of Mandamus, directing the respondents to appoint the petitioner on compassionate grounds in accordance with the Board proceedings in B.P.Ms.(F.B) No.3 dated 09.01.2007 with all monetary and attendant benefits.)
1. The father of the petitioner was an employee in the respondent Tamil Nadu Electricity Board. He applied for compassionate appointment. The second respondent issued a proceeding in ( Tamil ?) dated 20.03.2007 to furnish the documents referred to therein.
2. The grievance of the petitioner is that though he furnished those documents, no further reply is given by the second respondent. Hence, he made representation dated 31.03.2015. Now, the petitioner has filed this writ petition seeking direction to the first respondent to dispose of the representation dated 31.03.2015 referred to above. But, no acknowledgement is enclosed for having sent the representation to the first respondent.
3. In these circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to make a representation to the first respondent to pass order on his representation in the light of the proceedings of the second respondent dated 20.03.2007 referred to above. On receipt of such representation, the first respondent is directed to consider the same and pass orders, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of order on merits and in accordance with law.
4. This writ petition is disposed of with the above direction. No costs.
