JUDGMENT

¶17

Even though there are various assertions, allegations and averments made and urged in this writ petition, when this matter was called today,

¶18

Sri.Jayachandran – learned counsel for the petitioner, confined his plea that 2^nd respondent - Registrar be directed to take up and dispose of Ext.P5 representation of his client, within a time frame to be fixed by this Court.

¶19

Sri.Jayachandran explained that his client is confident that if Ext.P5 is properly considered by the 2^nd respondent, adverting to Exts.P3 and P4, then the claim for revision of his earlier date of promotion could be acceded to.

¶20

Sri.Manu Govind – learned Standing Counsel

¶21

for the respondents, in response, submitted that, if the petitioner only requires Ext.P5 to be taken

¶22

up and disposed of by the 2^nd respondent, there does not appear to be any legal impediment in doing so;

¶23

however, praying that this Court may not make any
