Though the petitioner stated that various representations have been submitted before the respondents 1 & 2, in the typed set of papers, he has not filed copies of said representations submitted before the competent authority viz., the first respondent.

¶32

Mr.S.J.Sathik Mohamed, learned Government Advocate, who takes notice for the respondents would submit that if any representation is submitted by the petitioner before the first respondent, who is the competent authority, the same would be considered on its own merits and appropriate orders will be passed in accordance with law.

On filing of such representation by the petitioner within the stipulated time, the first respondent shall consider the same and final orders shall be passed on its own merits, after issuing necessary
