Since the respondent has stated that he has already conducted an enquiry and despatched the report on 18.09.2013, he could have disposed of the petitioner's representation dated 04.09.2013 and informed the petitioner with regard to the despatch of the report.

4.Mr.B.Kannan, learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondent submitted that the respondent would inform the petitioner with regard to the enquiry conducted and also the report despatched on 18.09.2013 based on the representation dated 04.09.2013.
