JUDGMENT The petitioner is a Circle Inspector of Police at CBCID in Wayanad District. He is aggrieved by the delay in finalising the disciplinary proceedings initiated against him pursuant to Ext.P1. He has brought this to the notice of the Director General of Police through proper channel as per Ext.P5. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of directing the Director General of Police to take a decision on Ext.P5, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Since the petitioner has been reinstated after revocation of the suspension period, the request for finalisation of the disciplinary proceedings as such need only be considered. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the Director General of Police. V. GIRI, JUDGE. Pmn/ WPC.22642 /2008 2
