W.P.(C).NO.6571 OF 2011 ............................................. Dated this the 3rd day of November, 2011. JUDGMENT The petitioners have approached this Court with the following prayers: a. Call for the records relating to the issuance of P-5 of the 4th respondent and quash the same by issuing a writ of certiorari or other appropriate writ or order. b. Issue a writ of mandamus or any other writ or order or direction directing the 2nd respondent to publish fresh seniority list after considering the case of the petitioners on the basis of Exhibit P-2 and P-3 and make the appointment from the fresh seniority list. 2. When the matter came up for consideration before this Court on 21.3.2011, it was observed by this Court that the persons enlisted in Ext.P5 as the beneficiaries of the same are not made parties to the writ petition despite the challenge raised against Ext.P5 . 3. Today, when the matter is taken up for further consideration, the learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have already filed a representation projecting the grievances as contained in the writ petition W.P.(C).NO.6571 OF 2011 : 2 : before the respondents. It is stated that the petitioners would like to pursue the matter before the 4th respondent (who has issued Ext.P5) by filing a detailed representation and that the petitioners will be satisfied, if a direction is given to the said respondent to have the matter considered passing appropriate orders within a reasonable time. In the above circumstances, this Court does not find it necessary to consider the merits involved. If any representation is preferred by the petitioners before the 4th respondent within two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, the same shall be considered and appropriate orders shall be passed in accordance with law, with regard to the grievance projected therein. Final orders in this regard shall be passed as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within two months thereafter. Writ petition is disposed of. Sd/- P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, JUDGE. cl
