JUDGMENT
The petitioner is an Assistant Sales Tax Officer under the second
respondent. He retired from service while working as a Deputy
Commissioner (Appeals), on 31.10.2006. His grievance relating the
denial of timely promotion to the post of Assistant Commissioner was
virtually redressed as per Ext.P1. As per the same, the date of his
promotion to the post of Assistant Commissioner was revised and given
effect from 4.9.1992. Grievance of the petitioner is that despite the
passing of Ext.P1 order, no consequential order for granting him the
benefits flowing from Ext.P1 order has been issued. The petitioner
preferred Ext.P4 representation before the first respondent for its redressal.
It is still pending.
2. Considering the fact that the petitioner has already been issued
with a favourable order as per Ext.P1, it is only proper for the first
respondent to look into the matter and grant him the benefits flowing from
Ext.P1 order. Therefore, there is no reason or justification for not
W.P.(C) NO.2380 of 2010 2
considering Ext.P4 representation for that purpose. Accordingly, there
will be a direction to the first respondent to consider Ext.P4 and pass
orders thereon expeditiously,at any rate, within a period of two months
from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
The Writ Petition is disposed of as above.
