Thus, this writ petition is disposed of, only with a direction to the second respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 25.07.2017 and pass orders on the same, on merits and in accordance with law, after hearing the petitioner as well as the rival claimants and other interested parties, if any. Such exercise shall be done by the second respondent within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs.
