By this petition, the original petitioner Shankar Wamanrao Thakre had challenged inquiry initiated against him by respondents 1 and 2. This court by order dated 21.7.2000 stayed the inquiry against the petitioner. During the pendency of the petition, the petitioner has expired and his legal representatives have been brought on record. Since the reliefs sought are in respect of the inquiry initiated against the original petitioner, on account of death of the petitioner cause of action does not survive. 3. Mr. Parchure, the learned counsel for the petitioners states that the petitioners are entitled to pensionary benefits since the original petitioner had put in 2` 25 years' service before the inquiry was ordered against him. Mr. Parchure seeks leave to make representation to respondents 1 and 2 in this regard. Leave granted. In case such a representation is made to the respondents 1 and 2 within a period of four weeks, the respondents shall decide the same expeditiously and in any case within 12 weeks from the date of receipt of the representation. 4.
