Disciplinary action was initiated against him which culminated in Ext.P1 order of dismissal. Aggrieved by Ext.P1 order dismissing him from service the petitioner has filed Ext.P2 appeal before the Board of Management of the 3rd respondent society. The grievance voiced by the petitioner in this writ petition is that though nearly ten months have passed after the appeal was filed, till date orders have not been passed thereon notwithstanding the request made by him for expeditious disposal of the appeal. In this writ petition the petitioner seeks a direction to the first respondent to issue necessary directions to the 3rd respondent to pass final orders on Ext.P2 appeal. 2. When the writ petition came up for hearing today Sri.M.M.Monaye, learned counsel appearing for the 3rd respondent society, submitted that the Board of Directors of the 3rd respondent society will consider Ext.P2 appeal and pass W.P(C).No.36112 of 2010 -:2:- appropriate orders thereon after affording the petitioner an opportunity of being heard. In the light of the said submission I dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the Managing Committee of the 3rd respondent society to consider Ext.P2 appeal and pass orders thereon after affording the petitioner an opportunity of being heard expeditiously and in any event within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment. The 3rd respondent shall after orders are passed on Ext.P2, communicate a copy thereof to the petitioner expeditiously. P.N.RAVINDRAN, Judge. ahg.
