Operative part thereof reads as under:- "Accordingly, without commenting upon the merits of the case and keeping in view the above facts, as averred, which are supported by annexures on record, that the petitioner's case was kept pending on account of the fact that he was suspended and that he has now been duly reinstated. Accordingly, there is no such hurdle for considering his case for promotion, afresh and in view of the fact that the petitioner has already filed representation dated 10.04.2017 (Annexure P-6) to respondent No.1, it is directed that the said respondent shall take a decision on the same within a period of 4 weeks from the receipt of the certified copy of the order.
