The above Writ Petition is filed with the following
prayers:-
"i. declare that the appointments covered by Exhibits P-1 to

complied with the reservation of physically disabled hands,
duly taking note Exhibits P-10, P13 and P-14.
(ii) issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ order
or direction to grant approval to the appointments covered by
Exhibits P-1 to P-6 expeditiously.
(iii) issue writ of mandamus or any appropriate writ order or
direction directing the 1st Respondent to take a decision on

(iv) to dispense with filing of English translation of vernacular
documents produced along with the Writ Petition.
(v) pass such other order or direction which this Hon'ble
Court may deem fit and proper to grant in the circumstances
of the case."[SIC]
2. When this writ petition came up for consideration today,
the learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the
petitioner will be satisfied if a direction is issued to the 1 st
respondent to consider Ext.P15 within a time frame in the
light of Exts.P10, P13 and P14.
3. Heard the learned Government Pleader also.
4. After hearing both sides, I think this writ petition can be
disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider Ext.P15
within a time frame.
Therefore, this Writ Petition is disposed of with the
following directions:-
i. the 1st respondent is directed to consider and pass W.P.(C) No. 20298 of 2023 ..4..
appropriate orders in Ext.P15 after giving an opportunity of
hearing to the petitioner and other affected parties as
expeditiously as possible at any rate within a period of four
months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this
judgment.
ii. While deciding the matter, the 1st respondent will
consider the applicability of Exts. P10, P13 and P14.
