SIRI JAGAN, J. ----------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.34254 OF 2010 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 12th day of November, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that despite undergoing obligatory Police and Magisterial training, the petitioner's probation in the post of Tahsildar has not been declared yet on the ground that the petitioner has passed the test only after one year of being promoted to the post of Tahsildar. According to the petitioner, the delay in undergoing the training cannot be attributable to the petitioner, since it is because the petitioner was not deputed for such training that he could not undergo the training. He further submits that he was not deputed for training because according to the respondents, his services were absolutely essential in Idukki district as part of the team constituted by the Government for dealing with the land cases in Munnar. Detailing this grievance, the petitioner has filed Ext.P13 representation before the fourth respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the fourth respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P13 expeditiously. W.P.(C)No.34254/010 2 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the fourth respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P13, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
