According to petitioner the disciplinary authority is sitting over the recommendation of the enquiry officer which has already completed and report submitted as far back as on 16.12.2010. The Court fails to understand as to why disciplinary authority is to take so much time to do what is required to be done after submission of the report. This writ petition is disposed of with a direction upon the disciplinary authority that he must conclude the departmental proceeding by taking the follow up action based on the enquiry report within a period of three months from the date of production or communication of a copy of this order. This writ petition is disposed of with the above direction. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
