     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION        ON
15.09.2022, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WP(C) NO. 29398 OF 2022                   2



                                           JUDGMENT

Instant writ petition is filed seeking the following reliefs:

i) a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction, directing the respondents to grant approval to the petitioner's appointment as UPST on scale of pay basis w.e.f 22.6.2009 onwards without any break.

ii) a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction, directing the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P5 representation within the time stipulated by this Hon'ble Court.

2. Sri.T.T.Muhamood, the learned counsel appearing for the

petitioner, submitted that the action on the part of the respondents in limiting

the approval from 22.6.2009 to 31.5.2010 and that too on a daily wage basis

cannot be sustained. The petitioner contends that raising her grievances, she

has preferred Ext.P5 representation before the 1st respondent and seeks

expeditious disposal of the same.

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

of the order that I propose to pass, notice to the 4th 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 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.P5, after

affording an opportunity of being heard, either physically or

virtually, to the petitioner herein or her authorized

representative and the 4th respondent.

b) Orders, as directed above, shall be passed

expeditiously, in any event, within four 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.
