Learned counsel appearing on behalf of petitioners without entering into merits of the case, made an innocuous prayer that the petitioners may be permitted to file a fresh representation before respondent no.1 and a direction may be issued to him to decide the same in time bound manner. 3. Learned Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of the State- respondents vehemently opposed the writ petition on merits, but has not opposed the innocuous prayer as made by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners. 4. Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners, Sri Ashutosh Kumar Mishra, learned Standing Counsel appeared on advance accepted notice on behalf of the State-respondents, perused the contents made in the writ petition and the documents on record. 5. Without entering into merits of the case, I am inclined to allow the innocuous prayer made by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners as no objection made on behalf of learned Standing counsel appearing on behalf of State-respondents. Petitioners are directed to file a fresh representation along with present writ petition as well as certified copy of this order before respondent no.1 within 10 days from the date of production of certified copy of this order.
