2.When the matter is taken up for hearing, the learned Counsel for the petitioner would submit that even very recently this Court has disposed of similar Writ Petitions with certain directions. The learned Counsel for the petitioner would refer to the decision of this Court rendered in W.P.(MD)No.18952 of 2020 dated 19.02.2021. The learned Counsel for the petitioner would specifically draw the attention of this Court to paragraphs 2 and 3 in the order which are extracted hereunder:

"2.When the matter is taken up for hearing, Mr.K.Sathiya Singh, learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the respondents 1 and 2 would submit that the respondent department has issued a circular, dated 09.11.2018, as to the position to be followed in the matter of fraudulent registration. He would further submit that necessary action will be taken in terms of circular, dated 09.11.2018 and also further circulars issued by the respondent department. 3.In view of the above submission, the writ petition stands disposed of with the directions as under:- i) The 1st respondent is directed to consider the petitioner's representation, dated 19.09.2019 and take a decision on the same in terms of circular dated 09.11.2018.

ii) The 1st respondent is also directed to pass appropriate orders in this regard within a period of 8 weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order."

Therefore, the learned Counsel for the petitioner would pray for similar orders to be passed in this Writ Petition as well. 3.Mr.K.Sathiya Singh, learned Additional Government Pleader would not quarrel with the submission of the learned Counsel for the petitioner and would, in fact, fairly concede as to the issue raised in the Writ Petition.
