reversion was passed on 29.04.2008. In such circumstances, the
petitioner was retired from service. After his retirement, the petitioner has
received revised pension based on the reversion order. In this regard, the
petitioner has made representations dated 22.08.2008, 20.03.2016 and
10.04.2016. However, till date, no order has been passed. Hence, the
present writ petition is filed.

4.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that
this Court may grant liberty to the petitioner to file a fresh writ petition
challenging the order of reversion.
