Senior Assistant .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.R.C.Chatrath, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- ORDER Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks a mandamus to direct the respondents to withdraw the reversion order dated 3.10.2001 (Annexure P-4) and grant him consequential monetary benefits. The aforesaid relief has been sought by the petitioner on the strength of two decisions of this Court rendered in CWP No.15958 of 2001 (Avtar Kaur and others versus State of Punjab and others) decided on 10.2.2003 and CWP No.16390 of 2001 (Rajinder Singh, Accountant versus State of Punjab and others), decided on 20.11.2001 (Annexures P-5 & P-6). C.W.P.No .2600 of 2010 2 It is averred that the petitioner's reversion order has not been withdrawn merely because he was not a party to the above-cited writ petitions. This fact is evident from the information supplied to the petitioner under Right to Information Act vide Annexure P-7. The petitioner thereafter, served the respondents with a legal notice dated 11.5.2009 (Annexure P-9) but no action has been taken so far by the respondents. In the light of the afore-stated facts and considering the nature of the relief sought in the writ petition, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to respondent Nos.1 & 2 to consider the claim of the petitioner as contained in the legal notice dated 11.5.2009 (Annexure P-9) in the light of the two decisions rendered by this Court in the above- stated cases and disposed of the same by passing a speaking order as early as possible and preferably within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. 15-02-2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
