appointment for the purposes of seniority and pensionary benefits.”

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that case of the petitioner, the issue raised by her and the reliefs claimed herein stand adjudicated in Ajay Kumar Thakur & Ors. vs. State of H.P.2. It is, however, seen from the record that the petitioner has not preferred any representation for the redressal of his grievance raised in the writ petition.

5. Confronted with this, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner would be preferring representation within two weeks from today and he would be content in case the respondents/competent authority(s) are directed to consider and decide the same in accordance with law within a fixed-time schedule. Learned Deputy Advocate General is not averse to this prayer.

6. Having regard to the afore-submissions, but without examining the merits of the matter, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents/competent authority that in case the petitioner submit representation within two weeks from today, the same be considered and decided in accordance with law as well as taking into consideration the above judgment within a period of six weeks thereafter. The decision so arrived at shall also be communicated to the petitioner. 2CWPOA No. 1695 of 2019, decided on 04.10.2024.

The writ petition stands disposed of in the above terms, so also the pending miscellaneous application(s), if any.
