2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsels appearing for the respondents. 3.
Though the learned counsel for the 5th respondent has made several allegations in the counter, at the time of hearing, he placed the reliance of the order passed by the 4th respondent rejecting the case of the petitioner, on the status, and submits that in view of the said orders the Writ Petition became infructuous and if at all the petitioner has any grievance, he has to avail the statutory remedies. 4. Replying to the said contentions, the learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that though its status shows the application

has been rejected but so far the petitioner has not received any reasoned order to avail the statutory remedies. 5. Considering the submissions made by both the learned counsels, as already the authority has considered the application made by the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to go into the merits of the case, hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the 4th respondent, if any reasoned order is passed, the same may be communicated to the petitioner within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of the copy of this order, if no orders have been passed, the 4th respondent is directed to conduct an enquiry after issuing notice to the petitioner as well as 5th respondent and pass an appropriate reasoned orders within a period of one month from the date of receipt of the copy of this order.
