( 2026:JHHC:26119 )
fully entitled for the prayer made in the instant writ application; however, in spite of representation dated 20.01.2026, the grievance of the petitioner has not been redressed.

5.
Having regard to the aforesaid submissions and without going into the merits of the case, the instant writ application is hereby disposed of by directing the respondent No. 2 to look into the grievance of the petitioner by treating this writ application as representation and take a decision in the matter in accordance with law and applicable rules and regulations by passing a reasoned and speaking
