In the year 2008, she got selection for Post Graduate studies in Govt. Homoeo Medical College, Thiruvananthapuram. The grievance of the petitioner is that though Government have introduced deputation scheme enabling tutors in other branches of Medicine for acquiring PG qualifications, the said benefit is not extended to eligible persons from Homoeo Medical Colleges falling under the Direct Payment System. The contention is that since the college in which the petitioner is working as tutor is one falling under the direct payment system, there is no reason to show discrimination towards teacher of aided Homoeo Medical Colleges in the matter of granting deputation benefits. Raising such grievances the petitioner has already approached the second respondent through Ext.P1. Ext.P1 is dated 20.10.2008. So far, no orders have been passed on Ext.P1, it is submitted. WPC.15740/2010 : 2 : In this circumstances, without making any observation as to the merits of the contentions raised by the petitioner, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P1, expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
