It is only a show cause notice. Therefore, it is unnecessary for this Court to consider the grievance of the petitioner against Ext.P6. He can place all those grievances before the Deputy Chief Engineer (HRM), who issued Ext.P6. The petitioner may be said to be aggrieved, if only the final order on Ext.P6 goes against him. If he is aggrieved by that, he can invoke the statutory remedies,if any, available to him and thereafter, approach this Court. In view of the above position, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the Deputy Chief Engineer (HRM), who issued Ext.P6, to afford an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner and take a final decision in the matter in accordance with law within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. If the petitioner produces a copy of this judgment before the said officer within one month from today, the interim WPC 15649/04 2 order granted by this Court against recovery will remain in force till a final decision is taken as directed above. 13th June, 2008.
