       THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY

                         WRIT PETITION NO.5599 OF 2021

ORDER:

This writ petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution

of India seeking the following relief:-

"......to issue a writ of Mandamus, declaring the action of the respondents th 2 to 6 in not conducting fair enquiry with regard to 9 respondent's

employment in Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, Visakhapatnam,

Visakhapatnam District based on petitioner's representation, dated

11.09.2017, as illegal, unjust, arbitrary and violative of Articles 14 and 21 of

the Constitution of India..."

2. Though the petitioner made several allegations against the

respondents, during hearing, M/s. T.V.Sridevi, learned counsel for

the petitioner limited her request to dispose of the representation

dated 11.09.2017 submitted by the petitioner, without touching the

merits of the case.

3. Learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for the

respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation

submitted by the petitioner, if any, pending with the respondent-

authorities.

4. In view of the learned Government Pleader for Revenue, I need

not decide the truth or otherwise of the allegations made in the

petition. This Court is conscious that no such direction be issued, in

view of the judgment of the Apex Court in "The Government of

India v. P.Venkatesh1", wherein the Apex Court held that such

orders may make for a quick or easy disposal of cases in

overburdened adjudicatory institutions. But, they do no service to

2019 (8) SCALE 544

the cause of justice. As the learned counsel for the petitioner himself

requested to issue a direction to the respondent authorities to

dispose of the representation dated 11.09.2017 submitted by the

petitioner, I find no other alternative, except to issue such direction.

5. In the result, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the

respondent authorities to dispose of the representation dated

11.09.2017 submitted by the petitioner, in accordance with law,

within four (04) weeks from today. No costs.

As a sequel, miscellaneous applications, pending, if any, shall

also stand closed.
