The petitioner submits that the 3rd respondent had introduced a voluntary retirement scheme. Against the said scheme, the petitioner moved the 2nd respondent seeking to get the resolution introducing the said scheme rescinded as provided under Rule 176 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules, and that the representation was rejected by Ext.P1. Against Ext.P1, the petitioner filed Ext.P2 revision before the 1st respondent invoking the power under Section 83 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act. The revision has not been disposed of so far, and it is seeking an order for the expeditious disposal of the revision, the writ petition is filed. 3. Having regard to the fact that Ext.P2 is a statutory WP(C) No.18988/2009 -2- revision filed as early as in April, 2005, I feel, the petitioner is entitled to the relief sought for. 4. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2 revision filed by the petitioner with notice to him and also to the 3rd respondent. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months of production of a copy of this judgment, along with a copy of this writ petition. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
