For Petitioner :Mr.M.Karunanithi For Respondent :Mr.K.A.Nandagopan,Additional Government Pleader O R D E R The petitioner seeks a writ of Mandamus directing the respondent to take action pursuant to his complaint dated 11.04.2010. 2. According to the petitioner, (*)one V. RAJASEKAR was assaulted and a complaint to that effect was given before the police. Since the police has not taken any action, the petitioner was constrained to approach the State Human Rights Commission. The complaint was forwarded to the respondent for taking appropriate action, as per order dated 03.05.2010. Since there was no follow up action, the petitioner submitted a representation before the respondent on 03.01.2011. Even then, the respondent slept over the issue, which made the petitioner to file this writ petition. 3. Even though sufficient time was granted to the respondent to file counter, there was no response. 4. The grievance of the petitioner is only on account of the inaction on the part of the respondent. The petitioner has already given a representation on 03.01.2011 to the respondent. The State Human Rights Commission as per order dated 03.05.2010, directed the respondent to consider the matter. In case, the respondent has considered the matter, as per the direction of the State Human Rights Commission, the filing of this writ petition could have been avoided. Therefore, I am of the view that the matter requires consideration by the respondent. 5. Accordingly, the respondent is directed to consider and dispose of the representation submitted by the petitioner dated 03.01.2011 in the light of the order passed by the State Human Rights Commission dated https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 03.05.2010.
