Under such circumstances, there shall be adirection to the third respondent to consider the petitioner'srepresentation dated 22.09.2017 and pass orders on merits and inaccordance with law, within a period of four weeks from the dateof receipt of a copy of this Order. The petitioner is directedto submit a copy of the representation dated 22.09.2017 alongwith this order to the respondents.
