**** RAMESHWAR SINGH MALIK J. (ORAL) Feeling aggrieved against the alleged inaction on the part of respondent authorities, petitioner has approached this Court by way of instant writ petition under Articles 226/227 of the Constitution of India, seeking a writ in the nature of Mandamus.
A bare perusal of the file would reveal that when the genuine grievance of the petitioner was not being redressed, he finally approached the respondent authorities by way of a representation dated 6.6.2016 (Annexure P-2), but the same is also pending decision. Thus, it would be in the interest of justice, if respondent No.4 is directed to consider and decide the representation of the petitioner within a reasonable time.
