Radhakrishnan For respondents in all the WPs Mr. N. Sakthivel, Govt. Advocate COMMON ORDER (delivered by SATISH K. AGNIHOTRI, J.) With consent, the writ petitions are taken up for final disposal.

In view of commonality of the issue involved herein, all the three writ petitions are considered and decided by this common order.

While the petitioners in W.P. Nos.28057 and 28059 of 2015 made applications before the first respondent seeking Kurumans (ST) community certificate to them and their children, the petitioner in W.P. No.28058 of 2015 made an application seeking such certificate for himself and his wife. The said applications were turned down by the first respondent by orders dated 10 July 2015. Feeling aggrieved, the petitioners have come up with the instant writ petitions.

Today, when the matters are taken up for hearing, the learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents fairly submits that the authorities have noticed some discrepancies and irregularities in the impugned orders. Thus, the authorities be permitted to recall the impugned orders and take a fresh, reasoned and conscious decision on the petitioners'

applications, on merits and in accordance with law, within a period of six weeks.

In view of the above submission made by the learned Government Advocate, according to the learned counsel for the petitioner, nothing survives for adjudication in these writ petitions, at this stage.

Thus, recording the aforesaid submissions made by the learned counsel on either side, the writ petitions stand disposed of. Costs made easy. Connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.
