Concededly, against the order dated 23.9.2008 (Annexure P-9), the petitioner has filed an appeal dated 18.12.2008 (Annexure P-10) and the same is pending, as according to the petitioner no final decision has been taken on the same. Counsel states that due to pendency of the appeal, the petitioner has not been released his retiral benefits, therefore, he is suffering CWP No. 16871 of 2009 -2- and on the other hand, the respondents are not considering and deciding the said appeal. Counsel further states that at this stage, the petitioner will be satisfied if a direction is issued to the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the respondent Corporation (respondent No.2 herein) to consider and decide the appeal filed by the petitioner, in accordance with law. In view of the above, without issuing notice of motion as it will un-necessary delay the matter, this petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.2 to consider and decide the appeal dated 18.12.2008 (Annexure P-10) filed by the petitioner, in accordance with law, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order.
