24.06.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
WP(C) NO. 20617 OF 2022 2
JUDGMENT
The petitioner states that while working as a Pre-Primary School Teacher in GLPS, Puthenpeedika, she was removed from service by Ext.P3 order. It is contended that though the matter was taken before the authorities, the challenge raised by her was repelled. Being aggrieved, the petitioner is stated to have preferred Ext.P6 revision petition before the 1st respondent which is stated to be pending. The prayer in this writ petition is for expeditious consideration of Ext.P6 by the 1st respondent.
2. Heard Sri.T.T.Muhamood, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Smt.Nisha Bose, the learned Senior Government Pleader.
3. In the nature of the order that I propose to pass, notice to respondents 5 and 6 is dispensed with.
4. 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 1st respondent to take up, consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P6 after affording an opportunity of being heard, either physically or virtually, to the petitioner herein or her authorised representative WP(C) NO. 20617 OF 2022 3 and respondents 5 and 6.
b) Orders, as directed above, shall be passed expeditiously, in any event, within a period of three 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.
