The petitioner has certain disputes regarding seniority and date of promotion. Earlier, the petitioner obtained Ext.P1 judgment in W.P.(C)No.33491/10 for consideration of the petitioner's claim. Pursuant thereto, promotion was granted to the petitioner. But, his grievance regarding retrospective date of promotion was not considered. The petitioner has filed Ext.P2 representation before the third respondent for retrospective date of promotion as well. The petitioner seeks a direction to the third respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2 representation expeditiously. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the third respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
