He relinquished his office consequent to the election conducted on 8.11.2003. An enquiry was conducted by the Unit Inspector of Co-operative Societies, Cherthala into various allegations regarding losses caused to the Society by the former Managing Committee. Accordingly, an enquiry was conducted and on the basis of a report filed by such enquiry officer, the Secretary and some employees of the bank were found to be liable for the alleged loss. The petitioner was also made liable for a huge amount. The petitioner has submitted Ext.P2 appeal challenging Ext.P1 order. The petitioner has filed this Writ Petition complaining that Ext.P2 has not been disposed of by the first respondent till date. The petitioner seeks appropriate directions for the disposal of Ext.P2 wpc No.21843/2010 2 appeal on an early date. 2. In view of the limited relief that is claimed, I do not think it necessary to issue notice to the respondents. I have heard the learned Senior Government Pleader also, who assures that Ext.P2 would be disposed of without further delay. 3. In the above circumstances, this Writ Petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to consider Ext.P2 appeal in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner as well as all other interested persons.
