response, he has sent further communications on 7.9.2017 and 12.12.2017. But, till date, none of the objections were considered by the respondent. Hence, left with no other option, the petitioner has been advised to come to this Court.

3. We have heard the learned Government Advocate for the respondent.

4. Considering the limited scope of the prayer sought for in this writ petition, without going into the merits of the matter, we direct the respondent to consider the objections filed by the petitioner through his communications dated 7.8.2017, 7.9.2017 and 12.12.2017 and pass appropriate orders, preferably within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, after affording an opportunity of personal hearing to the petitioner.
