Petitioner has filed this petition seeking following relief (s) :- “10.1 That the Hon’ble Court may kindly be pleased to issue a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondent No.2 to issue the registration order in favour of the petitioners for the Para Medical Technician in accordance with law. 10.2 Any other relief, which may be deemed fit by this Hon’ble Court just and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case may also be provided in favour of the petitioner.” 2. Learned counsel for petitioners submits that petitioners were working as Lab Technician on contract basis under respondent authorities. Subsequently they have submitted an application before respondent No.2 for registration as medical technician, however, respondent No.2 has not considered the claim of petitioners and till date, the registration certificate has not been issued. 3. Learned counsel for respondent No.2 would submit that according to his oral instructions, there are discrepancies in the application submitted by petitioners and in the documents, which is enclosed along with the application, therefore, he may be granted three weeks time to file detailed reply. 4. Learned State counsel submits that grievance of petitioners is against respondent No.2, Registrar, Chhattisgarh Para Medical Council. 5. I have heard learned counsel for parties. 6. During the course of argument, learned counsel for petitioners made statement that application submitted by petitioners for their registration 3 as early as in the year 2012, which is enclosed along with this writ petition as Annexure P-1 is not considered till date and petitioners have not registered in the register maintained by the respondent No.2. 7. The submission of learned counsel for respondent No.2 is that they found certain discrepancies in their applications. 8. From the aforementioned facts of the case, it is apparent that the applications submitted by petitioners are still pending consideration and no decision has been taken by respondent No.2 on merits till date. 9. In the aforementioned facts and circumstances of the case and further considering that application stated to be submitted by petitioners in the year 2012, I find it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition at this stage permitting petitioner to submit fresh application for their registration before respondent No.2 in accordance with law and if such application is submitted by petitioners, respondent No.2 shall consider and take decision on their application expeditiously preferably within further period of three months from the date of submission of application in accordance with law. It is ordered accordingly. 10. With the aforesaid observations and directions, this writ petition stands disposed of. Sd/- (Parth Prateem Sahu) Judge Balram
