3.According to the petitioner, he made a representation dated 27.06.2018 to the respondents 1, 3 and 4. But, so far, no order has been passed on the said representation.

If the petitioner has any additional particulars, it is always open to the petitioner to furnish the same to the third respondent, enabling to consider the representation.
