At the outset, learned senior counsel for the petitioner states that he is only pressing for prayer clause (b) and not the other prayers.

In this view of the matter we are not going into the other reliefs sought for by the petitioner.

Accordingly, we direct the respondent No.2 to decide the petitioner's representation dated 10th December 2025 as expeditiously as possible, and in any event within 2 months from the date of receipt of this order.
