J U D G M E N T The petitioner is an employee of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation. Promotion was due to him as an Inspector, which he relinquished for personal reasons. However, later on, according to him, before the relinquishment took effect, the petitioner submitted an application for withdrawal of the relinquishment. The same was rejected by Ext. P3. The petitioner challenges Ext. P3 order. However, for the present, the petitioner would be satisfied with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider his representation in this regard, if filed. 2. I have heard the learned standing counsel for the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation also. 3. In view of the fact that the petitioner is due to retire from service on 30-4-2009 and the respondents have not chosen to file any counter affidavit in this writ petition yet, I dispose of this writ petition with the following directions: The petitioner shall file a representation before the 1st respondent detailing all his legal contentions within two weeks. The same shall be considered and appropriate orders passed by the 1st respondent considering all his contentions, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
