2. According to the petitioner, the petitioner made representations dated 31.03.2020, 30.12.2020 and 28.03.2022 to the 1st respondent requesting to settle her terminal benefits. But so far, no orders has been passed by the 1st respondent on the said representations. Hence, she filed the instant writ petition before this Court.

3. The learned Standing Counsel appearing for the respondents, on instructions, would submit that the representations of the petitioner dated 31.03.2020, 30.12.2020 and 28.03.2022 would be considered by the 1st respondent in accordance with law.

4. In the light of the above submissions made by the parties and considering the limited scope of prayer, without expressing any opinion on merits, this Court is inclined to direct the 1st respondent to consider the petitioner's representations dated 28.03.2022 and pass appropriate orders on merits and in accordance with law, as early as possible, within a period of twelve weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

5. With the above direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. No costs.
