                       W.P.(C).No.33018 of 2010

                             J U D G M E N T

The petitioner is a now working as a karanma employee in the

Vazhappally Sree Mahadeva Temple, under the Travancore Devaswom

Board. He was originally a provisional employee. His services were

terminated. Later on, he was reinstated in service with effect from

12.6.2008. According to the petitioner, the termination of services of

the petitioner itself was illegal and, therefore, on reinstatement, the

petitioner is entitled to payment of back wages as well. Seeking this

relief, the petitioner has filed Ext.P3 representation before to the 1st

respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 1st respondent to

consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, expeditiously.

2. I have heard the learned standing counsel appearing for

the Travancore Devaswom Board also.

3. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I dispose of this

writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass

orders on Ext.P3, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two

months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment

after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner.
