According to the petitioner, she is entitled to be regularised in service in view of Ext.P2 Government Order, in so far as the petitioner's appointment is prior to 25.11.2005. She therefore seeks the benefit of paragraph 3 (iv) of Ext.P2 Government Order. Seeking this relief, the petitioner has filed Ext.P3 representation before the third respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the third respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 expeditiously. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. The learned Government Pleader submits that the third respondent cannot decide the question of regularisation of the service of the petitioner and the same can be done only by the Government. W.P.(c)No.27309/10 2 3. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with the following directions: The third respondent shall forward Ext.P3 representation to the Secretary to the Government of the Animal Husbandry Department.

The Secretary to the Government of Kerala namely, the Animal Husbandry Department shall consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner.
