CWP-16321-2021 -2Keeping in view the limited prayer made by counsel for the petitioner, this Court is of the considered opinion that there is no requirement for receiving reply on behalf of respondents, which will only cause delay in decision making process.

Accordingly, without commenting on the merits of the case and the entitlement of the petitioner to be considered for the said claim, directions are issued to respondent No.2 to take action on the representation dated 05.07.2021 (Annexure P-8) within a period of three months on receipt of certified copy of this order. In case, the petitioner is not found entitled for the relief claimed or there is any legal impediment, a reasoned order be passed and conveyed to the petitioner.
