     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION
ON 08.06.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE
FOLLOWING:
 WP(C) NO. 18436 OF 2022

                                    JUDGMENT

The petitioner has approached this Court challenging Exhibit P14

order, by which respondents have denied approval to the petitioner as

U.P.S.A from 01.06.2010 onwards. She has also sought for a declaration

that she is entitled to approval as U.P.S.A with retrospective effect from

01.06.2010 to 31.05.2011 on a scale of pay basis.

2. Sri. Murali Pallath, the learned counsel appearing for the

petitioner submitted that highlighting her grievances, the petitioner has

preferred Exhibit P17 revision petition, which is pending before the 1st

respondent. The request of the learned counsel is for issuance of directions

to the 1st respondent to expeditiously consider Ext.P17 revision petition and

to take a decision.

3. Heard the learned Government Pleader as well. In view of the

nature of the order that I propose to pass, notice to the 6th respondent 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 by

issuing the following directions:

WP(C) NO. 18436 OF 2022

a) There will be a direction to the 1st respondent to

take up, consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P17

revision petition, after affording an opportunity of being heard,

either physically or virtually, to the petitioner herein or her

authorized representative and the 6th respondent.

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.
