1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 1590 of 2010 Dadasaheb Bajirao Kanse ....Petitioner Vs. The State of Maharashtra & ors. ....Respondents Mr. V.V. Pai for the petitioner. Mr. V.S. Gokhale, AGP for respondents. CORAM:- A.M.KHANWILKAR AND R.M.SAVANT, JJ DATED:- March 15, 2010 P.C.: It is not in dispute that the Petitioner has made representation to the appropriate Authority from time to time and each of those representations have remained undecided so far. The relief claimed in this Petition would stand redressed if the said representations were to be decided one way or the other by the appropriate Authority. We are of the considered opinion that the appropriate Authority should forthwith decide the pending representations. Learned AGP submits that the Petitioner be asked to file further representation. We do not think that such exercise is necessary. On the other hand, the appropriate Authority may treat the present Petition as the final representation of the Petitioner and after considering the same in accordance with law, pass appropriate orders as may be warranted in the situation and communicate the same to the Petitioner within the time 2 specified by us. All the above steps be taken within three months from today, as is expected in terms of the circular issued by the Chief Secretary bearing No. SKN-02/2010/PK-29/A-2 dated 16th February, 2010. 2. Petition disposed of on the above terms. All questions are left open to be decided on its own merits. (R.M. SAVANT, J) (A.M.KHANWILKAR, J)
