To buttress his contention, the counsel for the petitioners has also relied upon the order dated 20th June, 2022 passed by Co-ordinate Bench of this Court in the case of Sandeep Kumar Sahu and Others vs. State of M.P. and Others in WP No. 10926 of 2022 (Principal Seat).

In view of the innocuous prayer made by the petitioners, this petition is disposed of with liberty to the petitioners to make a fresh representation pointing out their grievances and entitlement.

In case such a representation is made, then the respondents shall decide the same by passing a speaking order within a period of two months from the date of receipt of the representation as well as the certified copy of this order.

I t is needless to mention that since this Court has not considered the merits of the case, therefore, the representation shall be decided strictly in accordance with law without getting prejudiced or influenced by this order.
