THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 24961 of 2006 Dated: 01.12.2006 Between: Vemula Mohan Rao, S/o late V. Venkata Ratnam, aged 49 years, Occ: Clerk/Shroff, presently R/o 3rd Ward, Kadakatla, Tadepalligudem, West Godavari District. .... PETITIONER AND The General Manager, I.I.P., Indian Bank, H.O. Rajaji Salai, Chennai and another. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 24961 of 2006 Order: The main grievance of the petitioner in this writ petition is that against the punishment order dated 20.11.2003 passed by the 2nd respondent, he preferred an appeal before the 1st respondent-General Manager on 15.11.2005, but no orders thereon have been passed till date. Hence, he filed the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the material on record. Since the appeal filed by the petitioner is said to be pending consideration before the 1st respondent-General Manager, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: The 1st respondent-General Manager is directed to consider and dispose of the appeal dated 15.11.2005, preferred by the petitioner against the punishment order dated 20.11.2003 passed by the 2nd respondent, expeditiously, preferably within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Date: 01.12.2006 Note: Issue CC by Monday (B/O) NSR/SJ
