He is said to have filed an appeal against the aforesaid dismissal order on 29.2.2008 (Annexure P-10) but it appears that no decision has been taken thereupon so far. Thereafter, the petitioner has sent several reminders, followed by a legal notice dated 5.3.2008 (Annexure P-11) calling upon the appellate authority to communicate the decision taken on his appeal, but there is no response to these representations/legal notice also. In these circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with a C.W.P.No .14247 of 2010 2 direction to respondent No.6 to decide the petitioner's pending appeal by passing a speaking order after giving an opportunity of personal hearing to him as early as possible but not later than three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order.
