In this petition, under article 226 of the Constitution, the petitioner, who is disabled, has prayed for several reliefs on the basis that the petitioner is entitled to get all the benefits as a person with disability, including the promotion to the post of Higher Grade Assistant under the L.I.C. with retrospective effect and also to promotion to the post of Assistant Administrative Officer in Class-I under the L.I.C. The petitioner’s grievance is that previously the petitioner had approached this Court with a grievance about the promotion to the post of Higher Grade Assistant (Administrative) by filing Writ Petition No.1184 of 2006 and this petition was disposed of by an order dated 13.11.2006 by accepting the statement made by the L.I.C. in their letter dated 5.9.2006 that the petitioner will be considered for promotion to the Higher Grade 2 wpl2737-10 Assistant post along with other eligible candidates. It is submitted that the petitioner was promoted by an order dated 1.3.2007 but only with prospective effect. It is contended that the petitioner was entitled to be promoted to the said post with retrospective effect. It is further submitted that the petitioner is also entitled for the promotion to the post of Assistant Administrative Officer. 2. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the L.I.C., we are of the view that the petitioner should approach the Chief Commissioner under The Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995. 3. Accordingly the petition is disposed of with a direction that if the petitioner moves the Chief Commissioner for The Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995, with a representation within two weeks from today, the Chief Commissioner shall consider the said representation expeditiously and preferably within two months from the date of the receipt of the said representation. 4.
