Central Bank Ltd., Hyderabad and another . . .Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.232 of 2006 O R D E R: The petitioner was employed as Incharge Manager in Hyderabad District Cooperative Central Bank Limited. He has been dismissed from service through orders, dated 26-06-2004, after conducting departmental enquiry. He states that he preferred an appeal before the second respondent way back on 23-07-2004 and complains that the appeal has not been disposed of as yet. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing counsel for the respondents. Aggrieved by the order of dismissal, dated 26-06-2004, the petitioner availed the remedy of appeal under the relevant service regulations, on 23-07-2004. It is true that the second respondent would meet occasionally and it does not function continuously. However, their inaction in taking up the appeal of the petitioner for the past 1½ years cannot be sustained. The matter needs to be attended to, without any further delay. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to pass appropriate orders on the appeal preferred by the petitioner, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ (L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J) 4th JANUARY, 2006. Note: furnish c.c. in three days. B/o kvni
