¶14

At the outset, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that instead of pressing the present petition on merits, his client would be satisfied in case direction is issued to the respondents to decide the representations (Annexures P-2 and P-3) moved at the instance of petitioner by passing a speaking order expeditiously.

Prayer seems to be justified.

Upon advance notice, Mr. Davinder Bir Singh, Sr. DAG, Punjab appears on behalf of respondents No.1 to 5 and raises no objection to the innocuous prayer made on behalf of the petitioner.
