No. 21237 of 2010 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of July, 2010 JUDGMENT Ramachandran Nair, J. The prayer in the WPC is only for direction to the Commissioner, the second respondent herein to consider and dispose of Ext.P1 representation filed by the petitioner who is a hereditary trustee and who has made serious allegations against the Manager/ Executive Officer of the temple. If the said employee is still in service, petitioner's representation calls for enquiry because he should not involve himself in similar omissions as in this case which is failure to produce records pertaining to disciplinary proceedings against melsanthi before the Deputy Commissioner. We dispose of the Writ Petition directing the Commissioner to conduct enquiry, and if any action is proposed against delinquent, he should issue notice, give opportunity to such person and then only proceed to take any action against him. Communication about the way in which Ext.P1 is disposed of should be issued to the petitioner. This should be done WPC 21237/2010 2 within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. (C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR) Judge. (P.S. GOPINATHAN) Judge. kk WPC 21237/2010 3
