Dated this the 15th day of June, 2010
J U D G M E N T
Petitioner is a Junior Superintendent in the Regional Transport
Office, Iringalakkuda. His grievance is that he has been excluded
from Ext.P6 select list. This is apparently for the pendency of
Exts.P2 and P3 charge sheets, to which the petitioner had submitted
Ext.P4 explanation. Petitioner complains inordinate delay in
finalizing the proceeding and including him in the select list.
Government Pleader on instructions submits that considering
the reply submitted by the petitioner to Exts.P2 and P3 charge
sheets, the 2nd respondent has already addressed the first
respondent to take a lenient view in the matter and to close the
proceedings by imposing a punishment of warning. It is stated that
this proposal was made by the 2nd respondent on 31.3.2010 and
the proposal in pending before the first respondent.
Therefore, at this stage, what is required to be done is that
the first respondent should take a decision on Ext.P4, in the light of
proposal made by the 2nd respondent. This the first respondent

shall do, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 6 weeks
from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. Necessarily,
dependent upon the decision, the petitioner’s claim for
consideration by the DPC shall also be dealt with.
Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a
copy of the writ petition before the first respondent for compliance.
