After the matter was heard for some time, learned counsel for the petitioner moulded his submissions confining the relief to the quantum of punishment only.

Learned counsel for the State has no objection to the disposal of the writ application in the aforesaid terms. This writ application is disposed with observation that if the petitioner approaches the authority/ has approached the authority, on the issue of quantum of punishment only, the matter remains in the discretion of the authorities as interference with the quantum of punishment is not the jurisdiction of the Court and which is expected to be considered expeditiously. The writ application stands disposed off. P. Kumar (Navin Sinha, J.)
