The petitioner seeks expeditious disposal of the same. 2. I have heard the learned Government pleader also. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I direct the 1st respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P3 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner and the manager shall also be afforded an opportunity of being heard. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this writ petition along with a W.P.(c) No.2939/08 2 certified copy of this judgment for compliance before the 1st respondent. The writ petition is disposed of as above. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE Acd
