HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE P.S.NARAYANA WRIT PETITION No.18094 of 2007 Date: September 10, 2007 Between: G.Narayana. … Petitioner. And 1. The Assistant Provident Fund Commissioner, (ENF) Regional Officer, 3rd lane, Krishna Nagar, Guntur and another. … Respondents * * * ORDER: The matter is coming up for admission. The writ petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus declaring inaction on the part of the respondents in considering and disposing of the petitioner’s review application dated 15.11.2006 filed under Section 7B of the EPF & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952, before taking any coercive steps, as arbitrary, unjust, violation of principles of natural justice and contrary to the provisions of Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Act, 1952, and consequently direct the respondents not to take any coercive steps against the petitioner and pass such other suitable orders. 2. Several factual details had been narrated in paras 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition. These facts need not be dealt with in detail, since the main grievance of the petitioner is that the first respondent is not considering and disposing of the petitioner’s review application dated 15.11.2006 filed under Section 7B of the EPF & Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. No doubt, it is stated that coercive steps already had been taken before filing of the review application. Hence, this court is not inclined to express any opinion on the said aspect. 3. In view of the facts and circumstances explained, the writ petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to dispose of the review application dated 15.11.2006 said to be pending on the file of the first respondent within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of this order. No order as to costs. ___________________ (P.S.NARAYANA, J) Date: September 10, 2007. BSB
