The matter is listed under the heading “For Admission (Subject to Office Objection)”. The Registry has raised objections regarding the Original Application being premature and barred by limitation. However, since the applicant has made a limited prayer for disposal of the representation, the Registry is directed to assign a regular number to the OA.

b. Direct the Respondents to appoint the Applicant to the post of Constable Driver, Delhi Police, with all consequential benefits;
c. Direct the Respondents to grant the Applicant notional seniority from the date on which similarly situated / batch candidates of Recruitment 2009 were appointed;
d. Pass such other or further order(s) as this Hon'ble Tribunal may deem fit and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case.”
3. At the outset, learned counsel for the applicant submits that the post-acquittal representation seeking appointment with consequential benefits, annexed as Annexure A-7, is still pending consideration before the SNEHA MEENA
respondents. He further submits that the applicant would be satisfied if a direction is issued to the respondents to dispose of the aforesaid representation by way of a reasoned and speaking order within a stipulated time frame.

6. A copy of the speaking order so passed shall be provided to the applicant.
7. The OA is disposed of in the aforesaid terms, without going into the merits, at the admission stage SNEHA MEENA
