BIJOY CHANDRAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 12/02/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.K.DENESAN, J. ----------------------------- WP(C)No. 4676 OF 2007 ----------------------------- Dated this the 12th February,2007. JUDGMENT The petitioner belongs to the category of Upper Division Clerk in the General Education Department. He along with another has been placed under suspension by the second respondent as per Ext.P1 order dated 31.1.2007. The petitioner has filed Ext.P4 representation before the second respondent requesting to revoke Ext.P1 order and to reinstate him in service. This representation can be considered as one filed under Rule 10(6) of the Kerala Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1960. 2. Though the petitioner submits that the consideration of Ext.P4 has been delayed by the interference of the fourth respondent, I do not consider it necessary to issue notice to the fourth respondent. It would suffice if the second respondent is directed to consider Ext.P4 on merits and to pass orders in accordance with law. Ordered accordingly. The same shall be done as early as possible, in any event, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. WPC 4676/2007 2 The petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment and copy of the writ petition before the second respondent for compliance. K.K.DENESAN Judge jj
