JUDGMENT
Even though various assertions, averments and allegations are made and urged in this Writ Petition, when this matter was called today, learned counsel for the petitioner confined his plea that Ext.P1 request preferred by his client be directed to be taken up and disposed of by the competent among respondents, within a time frame to be fixed by this Court.
2. In response, Sri.Rajeev Jyothish George - learned
Government Pleader, submitted that if the petitioner only requires Ext.P1 to be taken up and disposed of in terms of law, there does not appear to be any legal impediment in doing so; but prayed that this Court may not make any affirmative declarations on her entitlement to any relief and leave it to the competent Authority to take a final decision as per law. In the afore circumstances, I allow this Writ Petition and direct the competent among respondents to take up Ext.P1 request of the petitioner and to dispose of the same, after affording her, as also any other person who may be interested, an opportunity of being heard; thus culminating in an appropriate order and necessary action thereon, as expeditiously as is possible, but not later than one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
