¶21

According to the petitioner, her lands were acquired by the Government for certain public purposes and thereby, she deprived of her livelihood. By virtue of G.O.Ms.No.188 (P&AR), dated 28.12.1986, the petitioner is entitled to get priority in the Employment Exchange. Though, the second respondent has given a certificate of priority, it was not considered by the first respondent. Hence, the present writ petition.

¶22

The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that it would suffice, if a direction is issued to the first respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner.

¶23

The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the respondents would submit that first respondent is ready to consider the representation of the petitioner on merits and in accordance with law.

¶24

In the light of the limited scope of prayer sought for in this writ petition and the submissions of the learned counsel on either side, this Court without going into the merits of the case, directs the first respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 11.08.2009 and pass appropriate orders on merits and in accordance with law, after providing an opportunity of hearing to all necessary parties within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
