Rama Koteswara Rao, APTWR School(PGT-Boys), Maredmilli, East Godavari District. ..... PETITIONER AND 1 A.P. Tribal Welfare Residential Education, Insititutions Society, D.S.S. Bhavan, II Floor Masab Tank, HYderabad, Rep by its Member Secretary, 2 The Project Officer, Integrated Tribal Development Agency (ITDA) Rampachodavaram, East Godavari District. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.CHANDRAIAH SUNKARA Counsel for the Respondents:MR. K.DURGA PRASAD The Court made the following : ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a writ of mandamus to set aside order, dated 10.06.2008 of respondent No.2 and to declare the inaction of respondent No.1 in disposing of the petitioner’s appeal filed on 30.06.2008 as illegal. Heard Sri Chandraiah Sunkara, learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri K.Durga Prasad, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. Following the disciplinary proceedings, the penalty of stoppage of three annual increments with cumulative effect was imposed on the petitioner by order, dated 10.06.2008 by the disciplinary authority. The petitioner filed appeal before respondent No.1 questioning the said order on 30.06.2008. Though the petitioner formally sought for setting aside order, dated 10.06.2008 passed by the disciplinary authority, the learned counsel for the petitioner has not pressed the said relief. However, he submitted that though the appeal was filed as far back as 30.06.2008, respondent No.1 has not passed any final order. In my considered view, interests of justice would be met if the writ petition is disposed of by directing respondent No.1 to dispose of the appeal said to have been filed by the petitioner against order, dated 10.06.2008 passed by respondent No.2, within a period of three (3) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. As a sequel to disposal of main petition, WPMP.No.8503 of 2009 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous.
