Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P12 representation as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge 2
