Having regard to the facts and circumstances involved in the case, I am of th view that it is only just and proper to direct the 2nd respondent to consider Ext.P2 application and dispose of the same on merit. In the result, this Writ Petition is disposed of directing the 2nd respondent to consider Ext.P2 petition pending before the 2nd respondent, if the same is in order, and dispose of the same and pass appropriate orders, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, which will be produced by the petitioner.
