Learned State Counsel, however, on instructions submits that the order of regularisation, if any passed in respect of the petitioner, is not traceable due to which difficulty is being faced in getting 2025:UHC:10899 the amount payable as pension to the petitioner, fixed. 7. Learned counsel for the petitioner then submits that since petitioner has made a representation, therefore, the competent authority be directed to take decision thereupon. 8.
