W.P.(C) NO. 13743 of 2008

Dated this the 2nd day of May , 2008
JUDGMENT
The learned Government Pleader submits that Ext.P2 appeal was
preferred by the petitioner only on 2.4.2007 though the impugned
order was issued on 19.7.2005 and communicated to the petitioner on
2.8.2005. According to the learned Government Pleader, the appeal is
liable to be rejected at the threshold itself inter alia on the ground of
delay. I do not propose to decide the issue. Having regard to the
averments in the writ petition, the grounds raised, the documents
produced and the submissions addressed before me, the writ petition
will stand disposed of in the following directions;
The Government will take up Ext.P2 appeal, consider the same
in the light of the various grounds raised in the writ petition, hear the
petitioner and take a correct decision. Decision as directed above
shall be taken at the earliest and at any rate within three months of
receiving a copy of this judgment and copy of the writ petition. It is
made clear that this court has not expressed any opinion as on the
merits of the grounds or the correctness of the view taken by the
WPC No. 13743/2008 2
Registrar in Ext.P1. This judgment will not stand in the way of the
Government rejecting the appeal on the ground of delay, if so
advised.
