Government Pleader reiterates the objections raised and contends that petitioner is not entitled to approval as Lecturer Selection Grade. The writ petition is disposed of as follows: The third respondent will place his objection to Ext.P2(a) before the fourth respondent within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Thereupon the fourth respondent will consider each and every objection of the third respondent meticulously and pass a reasoned order. The same shall be WPC.7021/2006. 2 communicated to the petitioner and the third respondent. If the decision taken by the fourth respondent is reiterating Ext.P2(a), the decision in Cherian Mathew's case will govern and the monetary benefits due to the petitioner flowing from Ext.P2(a) shall be paid to the petitioner without any further delay.
