5. Pleader for Revenue, this Court need not decide the truth or otherwise of the allegations made in the petition. This Court is conscious that no such direction be issued, in view of the judgment of the Apex Court in “The Government of India v. P.Venkatesh^”, wherein the Apex Court held that such orders may make for a quick or easy disposal of cases in overburdened adjudicatory institutions. But, they do not serve to the cause of justice. As the
learned counsel for the petitioners himself requested to issue a direction to dispose of the representation/ Appeal dated 04.01.2025, this Court find no other alternative except to issue such direction.
6. Accordingly, with the consent of both the learned counsel, the present Writ Petition is disposed of, with a direction to the respondent authorities, more particularly, 2"‘^respondent herein to consider and dispose of the representation/ Appeal dated 04.01.2025 preferred by the petitioners and to pass appropriate orders, in accordance with law, after providing opportunity of hearing to both the parties, within a period of three (03) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
