That Battalion was disbanded in 1967 and the petitioner was absorbed in the CRPF. Later, he was discharged and re-enlisted/rejoined in the MSP as a Police Constable. Subsequently he was transferred and posted to the Armed Reserve, Palakkad. He retired from the service from the post of Assistant Sub Inspector. 2. The petitioner's grievance in the writ petition is that as per the Government orders on this subject, the entire period of service of the petitioner starting from 1964, is liable to be computed for the purpose of seniority and retirement benefits. The same has not been done. The petitioner submits that in identical cases by Ext.P1 judgment and Exts.P2 to P4, P7 and P8 orders, similar reliefs have been granted to others. In the above circumstances, the petitioner has filed Ext.P5 representation before the second respondent. Petitioner seeks a direction to the second respondent consider Ext.P5 representation in the light of Ext.P1 judgment and Exts.P2 to P4, P7 and P8 orders. W.P.(C) No.12854 of 2011-(F) -2- 3. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the second respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P5 representation filed by the petitioner as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. While doing so, the second respondent shall consider the applicability of Ext.P1 judgment and Exts.P2 to P4, P7 and P8 orders. 4. The petitioner shall produce a copy of the writ petition along with the certified copy of the judgment before the second respondent for compliance. Sd/- S. SIRI JAGAN JUDGE //TRUE COPY// P.A.
