However, having regard to the fact that charge Memo is dated 10.03.2016, which is more than two years, it is deemed fit to direct the disciplinary authority to finalize the disciplinary proceedings as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. For any reason, disciplinary proceedings cannot be concluded, not attributable to the petitioner, his case may be considered for promotion in accordance with the policy guidelines referred to above."
