3.According to the petitioner, he was initially appointed as Junior Assistant on compassionate ground in Peravoorani Taluk Office on 26.02.2007. The petitioner is now serving as Firka Revenue Inspector and his name has been included in the approved list of Assistants of the year 2014 instead of 2011, since the probation was declared belatedly. Therefore, the petitioner preferred an appeal on 23.06.2015 for inclusion of the petitioner's name in the approved list of Assistants of the year 2011. Since no order is passed thereon, the petitioner has come out with the present Writ Petition. 4.Considering the limited relief sought for, without going into the merits of the case, this Court directs the first respondent to consider the appeal preferred by the petitioner on 23.06.2015, on merits and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, within a period of twelve weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

5.With the above direction, this Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs.
