(Oral) Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners, on instructions, states that petitioners’ case is squarely covered by the judgment dated 29.11.2024, passed by coordinate Bench of this Court in CWP No. 1638 of 2024, case titled Mohit Sharma and Anr. v. State of Himachal Pradesh and Ors., and as such, they would be content and satisfied in case directions are issued to the respondents to consider and decide their representation dated 13.1.2025 (Annexure P-6) in a time bound manner. 2. Mr. Vishal Panwar, learned Additional Advocate General, while putting appearance on behalf of the respondents, fairly states - 2 - that he is not averse to aforesaid innocuous prayer made on behalf of the petitioners. 3. Consequently, in view of the above, this Court without going into the merits of the case deems it fit to dispose of the present petition with a direction to the respondents to consider and decide representation of the petitioners in light of Mohit Sharma (supra) expeditiously, preferably within a period of four weeks. Ordered accordingly. Needless to say, authority concerned, while doing the needful in terms of instant order, shall afford an opportunity of hearing to the petitioners and pass a speaking order thereupon. Liberty is reserved to the petitioners to file appropriate proceedings in appropriate court of law, if they still remain aggrieved. Pending applications, if any, also stand disposed of.
