Learned Counsel for the Petitioners submits that they have been made to run from pillar to post by moving appropriate application before the different authorities but no action or order has been passed by the Respondents in this regard.

Learned Counsel for the State at this juncture submits that from the records it appears that the Petitioners have not approached the competent authority till now and therefore he submits that the Petitioners may be directed to file a fresh representation to Respondent No.2, on which the Respondent No.2 shall take an appropriate decision.

Accordingly and in view of the submission of the State Counsel, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to the Petitioners to file a fresh representation in respect of their claim to Respondent No.2 within a period of three weeks from today and on receipt of the said representation it is expected that the Respondent No.2 shall positively take a decision in accordance with the rules governing the field, within a further period of three months. 5.

In case, if the Petitioner is not entitled to the relief the Respondent No.2 shall pass a speaking order intimating as to why he is not entitled. 6.
