NO. 17194 OF 2007 --------------------- Dated this the 19th day of June, 2007 J U D G M E N T Having heard learned counsel for the parties and having perused the materials placed on record, I am of the view that the writ petition can be disposed of without going into the merit of the rival contentions. Learned counsel for the petitioner prays for a direction to respondent No.1 to take a decision on Ext.P5 representation submitted by the petitioner in which he is stated to have highlighted all his grievances. Though learned counsel for respondent No.3 has got some reservations about the said request, he submits that in the event of a direction being issued to respondent No.1 to consider Ext.P5, respondent No.3 may also be heard. In the above facts and circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.1 to consider and pass orders on Ext.P5 in the light of the relevant orders/circulars governing the field. Respondent No.1 shall ensure that petitioner and respondent No.3 and all others who are likely to be affected by the orders that may be passed in the matter, are afforded sufficient WPC NO.17194/07 Page numbers opportunity to be heard before a decision is taken on Ext.P5. Respondent No.1 shall take a decision on Ext.P5, as expeditiously as possible at any rate within three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner and respondent No.3 shall join duty at their respective stations where they have been posted in terms of Ext.P4 order, within seven days from today. A.K.
