CWP NO. 6475 of 2007 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CWP NO. 6475 of 2007 DATE OF DECISION: 03.05.2007 Sawinderpal Singh ...Petitioner Versus State of Punjab and others ....Respondents. CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE J.S. KHEHAR HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L.N. MITTAL PRESENT: Mr. Baljit Puri, Advocate for the petitioner J.S. Khehar, J. (oral) Learned counsel for the petitioner states, that the petitioner has not been included in the seniority list of Multipurpose Health Workers (Male) despite the fact, that the petitioner was inducted into the service of the respondents, in the aforesaid capacity, as far back as in the year 1983. So as to have his name included in the seniority list, after issuing a number of representations, the petitioner served a legal notice dated 5.9.2006 (Annexure P8) upon the respondents, requiring them to assign a proper place to the petitioner in the seniority list of Multipurpose Health Workers (Male). It is further the contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner, that despite the issuance of the aforesaid legal notice, no decision has been taken by the respondents on the claim raised by the petitioner. Learned counsel for the petitioner states, that the petitioner CWP NO. 6475 of 2007 2 will be satisfied if the instant writ petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.2 i.e. the Director, Department of Health and Family Welfare, Punjab, requiring him to take a final decision on the legal notice dated 5.9.2006 (Annexure P8). In view of the above, without going into the merits of the claim raised by the petitioner, we consider it just and appropriate to dispose of the instant writ petition by directing respondent No.2 i.e. the Director, Department of Health and Family Welfare, Punjab, to take a final decision on the legal notice dated 5.9.2006 (Annexure P8), by passing a well reasoned speaking order within three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. Disposed of accordingly. Order dasti, on payment of usual charges. ( J.S. Khehar ) Judge ( L.N. Mittal ) May 03, 2007. Judge vig
