GIRI, J. ------------------------------- W.P(C) No. 6898 OF 2008 ----------------------------------- Dated this the 3rd day of March, 2008 JUDGMENT Petitioner is aggrieved by Ext.P1 order, by which he has been directed to vacate the quarters, No.E1. Learned Standing Counsel on instructions submits that the petitioner was allotted E type quarters in the year 2003. This was on an undertaking given by him that he will vacate as and when it is allocated to the sub- station staff. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that even otherwise the petitioner is entitled for the quarters and referred to Clause 6 of Ext.P2 guide lines. Ext.P2 will show that a competent authority for allotment of quarters is Assistant Executive engineer and petitioner has brought his claim in this regard before him. Having heard counsel on both sides, this Writ Petition is disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 within a period of one month from today. Petitioner as also the 4th respondent shall be heard before such orders are passed. Petitioner shall be permitted to remain in the WPC No. 6898 OF 2008 2 quarters which he is occupying, till orders are passed on Ext.P3 and his continuance thereafter will be subject to the decision taken on Ext.P3.
