No.24318 of 2010 (L) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 6th day of August, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a Junior Liaison Officer under the respondent Board. 2. Prayer sought in the writ petition is to quash Exts.P5 proceedings dated 13/07/2010 and to direct the 1st respondent to prepare and publish a combined seniority list of Officers in the integrated cadre of Junior Liaison Officer as on 01/01/2006 and not to effect any appointments to the post of Liaison Officer in the meanwhile. 3. Although these prayers are sought for, at the time of hearing learned counsel for the petitioner confined his prayer for a direction to consider Ext.P8 representation made by his Association objecting to Ext.P5. Having regard to the limited nature of the relief sought for, without expressing anything on the merits of the contentions raised, I direct the 1st respondent to consider Ext.P8 representation and WP(C) No.24318/2010 -2- pass orders thereon, with notice to the petitioner. This the 1st respondent shall do as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks of production of a copy of this judgment, along with a copy of this writ petition. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
