A further prayer for directing the respondents to stop the unauthorized canteens/dhabas miscreants and to provide the police security to run the contracted work or in alternative to refund the auction money received from the petitioners. For the relief claimed in the instant petition, the petitioners have already served a legal notices dated 13.11.2007(Annexures P-9 and P-10) on respondents. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioners at some length and perused the paper book. It is well settled that before seeking a direction or a writ of mandamus, a demand justice notice is required to be served on the respondents as has been done in the present case. The petitioner had sent a legal notices, dated 13.11.2007 (P-9 and P-10), to which no reply is stated to have been received. Therefore, without going C.W.P.No.4243 of 2008 -2- into the merits of the case, we dispose of the writ petition at this stage with a direction to the respondents to take a decision on the legal notices dated 13.11.2007 (P-9 and P-10) by passing a speaking order within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. Petition stands disposed of in the above terms. (M.M.KUMAR) JUDGE ( SABINA ) JUDGE March 18, 2008 paramjit
