2. The decision as to whether the petitioner's name could be included in the Promotion panel or not depends on various factual https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

aspects and this court may not be able to go into the factual aspects for considering the petitioner's request and fixing up his seniority. Nevertheless, if the petitioner is granted liberty to approach the respondent seeking for redressing his grievance with a consequential direction to the respondent to consider such a request, the ends of justice may be secured. The petitioner seem to have given representation dated 28.07.2015 in this regard. However, taking into account that the representation was given six years back, the petitioner herein is granted liberty to make a fresh representation to the concerned authority namely to the second respondent herein. On such representation, the second respondent herein shall consider as expeditiously as possible within a period of three (3) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this Order. The Writ petition is disposed of on the above terms.
