State Road Transport Corporation. He met with an accident and suffered an injury to his left eye. It is pleaded that the respondent-Corporation has extended certain benefits to handicapped persons including handicap allowance at the rate of Rs.155/- per month. The petitioner made a representation on 17.02.2008 requesting the 2nd respondent to grant the handicap allowance and the same was referred to the 3rd respondent vide 2nd respondent’s letter dated 29.03.2008. However, since the 3rd respondent failed to issue the necessary medical certificate, the petitioner has not been granted the allowance so far. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned standing counsel appearing for the Corporation. A copy of the letter addressed by the 2nd respondent dated 29.03.2008 has been placed before this Court which shows that the allowance sought by him can be granted only on the basis of the certificate issued by the 3rd respondent on medial examination. Learned standing counsel for the Corporation states that the further steps pursuant to the letter addressed by the 2nd respondent dated 29.03.2008 would be taken expeditiously so as to consider the petitioner’s request for grant of allowance. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the 3rd respondent to conduct the medical examination to the petitioner in terms of the 2nd respondent’s letter dated 29.03.2008 and issue the appropriate certificate following due process of law as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of this order. In case, there is any objection to issue said certificate, the reasons should be communicated to the petitioner within the time fixed above. No costs. _____________ G.ROHINI,J Date: 20.11.2009 KLP
