SURENDRA MOHAN, J. ------------------------------------------------------------ W.P(C) NO: 18875 OF 2010 H ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 1st July, 2010. JUDGMENT The petitioner was working as the Secretary of the second respondent society. While so, she started an SB account No: 207 in the said society. She is having an amount of Rs.1,55,851/- as balance in her account. As per Ext.P3 the third respondent has placed her under suspension for a period of six months and thereafter she was asked to go on leave for five years without salary. She complains that she was not paid any subsistence allowance during the period of her suspension. She was also not allowed to withdraw any amount from her SB account. Therefore she had approached this Court by filing a writ petition. However, she was relegated to the remedy of instituting arbitration proceedings. Accordingly she has filed ARC 846/2009 together with an application for interim relief, evidenced herein by Ext.P6. The petitioner complains that no orders have been passed on Ext.P6 till date though the same was filed as early as in April 2009. In the above circumstances the petitioner seeks appropriate directions for an early disposal of Ext.P6. The learned senior Govt. WPC 18875/2010 2 Pleader who represents the respondents has no objection to such a direction being issued. 2. In the above circumstances this writ petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to consider the application for interim relief submitted by the petitioner evidenced herein by Ext.P6 in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
