THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 22/12/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 38215 of 2010 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 22nd day of December, 2010. J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a temporary Peon in the establishment of the 1st respondent. He had completed 27 years of continuous service. He was being paid consolidated salary of Rs. 2610/-. The scale of pay of regular Peon is Rs. 4590-11178. The petitioner submits that the petitioner is entitled to be regularised in service with service benefits applicable to regular employee. Seeking this relief, the petitioner has filed Ext. P1 representation before the 2nd respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext. P1 expeditiously. 2. Learned standing counsel for the respondents points out that Ext. P1 is addressed to the Chief Minister and not to the 2nd respondent. I am of opinion that Ext. P1 can be treated as one filed before the 2nd respondent. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext. P1 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Sd/- S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/ [TRUE COPY] P.S TO JUDGE.
