IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civl Writ Petition No.14685 of 2011 Date of Decision : August 11, 2011. Bahadur Singh .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Onkar Rai, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks a mandamus for regularization of his suspension period before his services were illegally terminated. The above said relief has been sought on the basis of the Award dated 9.10.1980 passed by the Labour Court, Ludhiana setting-aside the order of his termination. It is averred that it is after the retirement of the petitioner w.e.f., 30.4.2011 that he came to know that the suspension period has not been counted towards the qualifying service. The petitioner thereafter served the respondents with a legal notice dated 14.7.2011 (Annexure P-2) but that has been responded so far. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, I deem it CWP No.14685 of 2011 [2] appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to respondent Nos.2 & 3 to consider the claim of the petitioner as contained in the aforementioned legal notice and dispose of the same by passing a speaking order within a period of four months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. August 11, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
