P4 and P4(a) within a time frame to be fixed by this Hon'ble Court by issuing a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, direction or order."
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner points out that, pursuant to Ext.P3 report submitted by the 6th respondent, the 1st respondent, invoking the power conferred under Section 145(1) and 146(1) of the Cr.P.C, has issued Exts. P4/P4(A) orders and that the petitioner has filed Ext.P5 objection in M.C.No. 59 of 2014. The grievance of the petitioner is with regard to the delay in finalizing the proceedings.
