C. No.973/AMR/75 and to pass such suitable orders. The main grievance ventilated by the Writ Petitioner is that in pursuance of notice dated 08.01.1997, no orders had been passed. In the light of the facts and circumstances, inasmuch as the notice dated 08.01.1997 itself is questioned in the present Writ Petition, it would be just and proper to direct the first respondent to pass appropriate orders insofar as the Writ Petitioner is concerned after putting him on notice within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of this order. The Writ Petition is disposed of accordingly. No order as to costs. ____________ 22-12-2004 kvrm To 1.
