JUDGMENT The petitioner is an Assistant Sub Inspector in the Armed Reserve Camp, Kasargod. According to him, he is entitled to be promoted to the post of Reserve Sub Inspector. Though he had filed Ext.P6 representation before the fourth respondent, the same was rejected as per Ext.P8. Against Ext.P8, the petitioner has filed Ext.P12 appeal, which is pending before the first respondent. The petitioner prays for the issue of a direction to consider and dispose of Ext.P12 on an early date. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. 3. This writ petition is accordingly disposed of directing the first respondent to consider the representation/appeal submitted by the petitioner, evidenced herein by Ext.P12, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. sd/-K.
