the learned Tribunal for expeditious disposal of the O.A for which purpose the counter affidavit will be filed within one week. He however prays that the learned Tribunal be directed to decide the O.A. expeditiously.

¶17

Taking into account the nature of the impugned order, we are inclined to accept the petitioner’s request for expeditious disposal of the O.A. Accordingly, while dismissing the petition as not pressed, it is directed that subject to the petitioner filing the reply to the O.A. within one week from today, the learned Tribunal will after granting three weeks time to the respondent/applicant to file her rejoinder, endeavour to decide the O.A. on or before 31.03.2024.

¶18

This order is being passed taking into account the petitioner’s grievance, that as a consequence of the interim stay granted by the learned Tribunal, the rights of other employees who were to be promoted to the post of Assistant Accounts Officer is also being affected.

¶19

It is, however, made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the petitioner’s claim and therefore, it will be open for the learned Tribunal to decide the O.A. on its own merits.
