The name of the petitioner was not included in the seniority list, thereafter he had made a representation on 20.09.2017. Subsequently as the respondents did not consider the representation of the petitioner, the petitioner had approached this Court by filing a writ petition being Writ-A No. 9462 of 2023, which was disposed of by order of this Court dated 13.12.2023 directing the respondents to consider the representation of the petitioner within a period of eight weeks. 3.

After arguing the matter at some length, learned counsel for petitioner submits that the grievance of the petitioner substantially redressed in case the respondents consider the case of the petitioner for promotion on the post of Supply Inspector and grant him benefit of the said promotion from the date juniors to the petitioner have been promoted. 6.
