IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA CWP No. 6039 of 2010 Date of decision: 5.10.2010. Sunil Kumar ….. Petitioner. Vs. State of H.P. & ors. …. Respondents. Coram The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kuldip Singh, Judge. For the Petitioner : Ms. Archana Dutt, Advocate. For the Respondents : Mr. R.K.Bawa, Advocate General with Mr. Ankush Dass Sood, Addl. A.G. and Mr. R.M. Bisht, Dy. Advocate General. Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral) The writ petition has been filed with following prayers:- (i). That the respondents may be directed to consider and decide the matter of the petitioner as early as possible and to provide him suitable employment under the Die in Harness Policy as early as possible. (ii) That the respondents may also be directed to produce the relevant records of the present matter and in case the respondents are defaulters to do so, appropriate action may kindly be initiated against them, who have misplaced the relevant record in the present matter. 2. It is strange and unfortunate that the petitioner, who has been knocking the doors for compassionate appointment ever since 2004, is not granted the relief only on the ground that - 2 - records are not traceable despite the documents submitted by the petitioner twice. The petitioner has again submitted the documents. There will be a direction to the 2nd respondent to take a final decision in the matter in accordance with law and justice treating the claim of the petitioner as pending since 2004 within a period of one month from the date of production of a copy of this judgment alongwith copy of writ petition by the petitioner before the 2nd respondent. 3. With the above observations, the writ petition stands disposed of so also the pending application(s), if any. Copy dasti. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. October 5, 2010. (Justice Kuldip Singh), (Hem) Judge.
