4.Though the petitioner has sought for a larger relief, having regard to the fact that the respondents have not disposed the aforesaid representation dated 08.07.2017, made by the petitioner claiming the relief, this Court is of the considered view that it would initially suffice to direct the second respondent to dispose the aforesaid representation and in the event of any adverse order, the petitioner may thereafter impeach the same in a manner recognized by law.

¶18

5.Accordingly, this Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to dispassionately consider the representation of the petitioner dated 08.07.2017, and pass reasoned orders thereon, on merits and in accordance with law and communicate such decision to the petitioner and file a report of such compliance before the Registrar (Judicial), Madurai Bench of Madras High Court, Madurai on or before 30.11.2017. It is needless to add here that the admitted amount of monetary benefits shall be expeditiously disbursed by the Respondents to the petitioner and in any event, within a period of one month from the date of passing of the order disposing the representation. No costs.
