2.The case of the petitioner is that the petitioner was appointed as a Secondary Grade Assistant Teacher in D.M.Elementary School in the year 2016 on compassionate grounds. On 16.08.2018, the fourth respondent/D.M.Elementary School had forwarded the application for approval of the appointment of the petitioner to the second respondent and thereafter, the second respondent had returned the said application by raising certain queries on 04.11.2018. The fourth respondent complied the queries raised by the second respondent and resubmitted the application on 25.01.2019. However, the second respondent did not take any action. Thereafter, the petitioner made a representation to the respondents on 23.09.2019, requesting to consider the application for approval and pass appropriate orders. Till date, the representation was not considered.
Hence, the petitioner filed a Writ Petition before this Court. 3.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that it would suffice if this Court issues direction to the second respondent to consider the application forwarded by the fourth respondent and to dispose of the same within a reasonable time as fixed by this Court.
4.Without going into the merits of the case, I am inclined to issue direction to direct the second respondent to consider the application forwarded by the fourth respondent and pass orders on merits and in accordance with law within a period of 12 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.
