CWP No. 21568 of 2010 Harjinder Singh vs. State of Punjab and others Present: Mr. Jasjeet Singh, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Shilesh Gupta, DAG, Punjab. *** Learned counsel for the petitioner states that for the grievances raised in the petition, the petitioner has already issued a legal notice dated 20.09.2010(Annexure P-1). In these circumstances, without going into the merits of the case, in my opinion, it would be in the interest of justice if respondent No.2 is directed to decide the said legal notice within a period of 8 weeks from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order by passing a speaking order thereon. In case the petitioner is found entitled to the payment, the same shall also be released to him within the aforesaid period. Ordered accordingly. With the aforesaid direction, this petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) December 03, 2010 JUDGE sunita
