THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
27.07.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
WP(C) NO. 13428 OF 2022 2
JUDGMENT
The petitioner states that he is the President of the Parent Teachers Association of the G.U.P School, Karimba. His grievance concerns the manner in which the PTA has expended the funds. It is contended by the petitioner that highlighting his grievances, he has preferred Ext.P4 request before the 3rd respondent. Though various other reliefs are sought for, when the matter came up for consideration, the request of the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner is for a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider Ext.P4 in the light of Ext.P5.
2. I have heard Sri.I.Dinesh Menon, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Sri.Premchand R. Nair, the learned Senior Government Pleader.
3. After having carefully evaluated the contentions raised in this writ petition, the submissions made across the Bar, and the facts and circumstances, I am of the view that this writ petition can be disposed of at the admission stage itself by issuing the following directions:
a) There will be a direction to the 3rd respondent to take up, consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P4, in the light of Ext.P5, after affording an opportunity of being heard, either physically or virtually, to the petitioner herein or his authorized representative and the 4th respondent. WP(C) NO. 13428 OF 2022 3
b) Orders, as directed above, shall be passed expeditiously, in any event, within two months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment.
c) It would be open to the petitioner to produce a copy of the writ petition along with the judgment before the concerned respondent for further action. This writ petition is disposed of.
