At the outset, learned counsels for the parties state that the proposal of the petitioner though submitted on 15/11/2007 is pending and has not been decided. In the light of the fact that the said proposal is pending consideration, according to us it would be wholly inappropriate to decide the petition on merit. We accordingly allow this petition and direct respondents to decide the proposal of the petitioner if pending, within 2 months from today and communicate the decision thereon to the petitioner. 4. Rule is thus made absolute on the terms indicated above with no order as to costs. (A.V.POTDAR, J.) (P.V.HARDAS, J.) khs/SEP 2009/wp4960-09
