Disciplinary proceedings were initiated against the petitioner and he was suspended from service on 17.12.2002. Later on he was reinstated in service on 24.3.2003. His grievance in this writ petition is that pursuant to the said proceedings no final orders have been passed. I directed the learned counsel appearing for the respondent to get instructions as to within what time the disciplinary proceedings initiated pursuant to Ext.P1 charge memo can be completed. Today, the counsel appearing for the respondent submits that the disciplinary proceedings can be completed within four months. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent to complete the disciplinary proceedings initiated against the petitioner pursuant to Ext.P1, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment. If the disciplinary proceedings are not so completed, it would be assumed that the respondent has no intention to continue the proceedings initiated by Ext.P1 and all further proceedings shall be dropped.
