The Court at the admission stage made the following O R D E R: Petitioner seeks a Writ of Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents in not taking any action in respect of the representations dated 03.11.2004 and 15.12.2004 made by him, as illegal, arbitrary and violative of principles of natural justice. In view of the conviction by the competent criminal Court, the respondents stopped pension and retiremental benefits to the petitioner. The grievance of the petitioner is that as he was acquitted by this Court in criminal revision case, he is entitled for the pension and other retiremental benefits and, therefore, made representations dated 03.11.2004 and 15.12.2004. As the said representations were not disposed of, the present writ petition is filed. Basing on the judgment of this Court, the respondents have to take appropriate decision. Therefore, the writ petition can be disposed of directing the respondents to pass appropriate orders on the representations dated 03.11.2004 and 15.12.2004 made by the petitioner, in accordance to law, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
