He had filed a writ petition, which was disposed of by Exhibit-P1 directing the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on the claim for his dues. Accordingly, it is stated that an enquiry was ordered and this has been completed and the matter has been forwarded to the 1st respondent for finalisation. The prayer of the writ petitioner is to direct the 1st respondent to finalise the proceedings. 2. I heard the Learned Government Pleader also in this matter. In view of the facts as stated above, there is no justification for the 1st respondent to delay the matter any further. 3. Accordingly, I dispose of this writ petition directing the 1st respondent to pass orders on File No.A1 2518/1997, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 1st respondent, for compliance. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) ma K.THANKAPPAN,J CRL.A. NO.92 OF 1999 ORDER 25th May, 2007
