Having regard to the facts stated by the petitioner in support of her contentions, it appears that the Director of Health Services shall look into the complaints and after calling for the relevant records, take appropriate decision. The petitioner has approached the Director of Health Services by filing Ext.P8 representation, which according to the petitioner contains facts germane for consideration. 2.Having heard the counsel for the petitioner and the Government Pleader for the respondents, I am inclined to dispose of the writ petition directing the Head of the Health Services Department to take appropriate decision. In the circumstances, it is not necessary to issue notice to the 4th respondent in these proceedings. 3. The writ petition is disposed of directing the Director of Health Services who has been impleaded as additional 5th respondent to issue W.P.(C)No.89/2007 2 notice to the petitioner and the 4th respondent, consider all relevant facts with reference to the records and take appropriate decision, in accordance with law, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. The petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment before the 5th respondent along with a copy of the writ petition. Needless to state that if the parties respond to the notice, they shall be heard and their contentions shall be adverted to. K.K.DENESAN, JUDGE css/ W.P.(C)No.89/2007 3
