Judgment :- The petitioners in these writ petitions have approached this Court with the prayer for issuance of writ in the nature of Mandamus, directing the 1st and 2nd respondents to fix the inter-se seniority between the directly recruited Commercial Tax Officers (now re-designated as Assistant Commissioner) and the promotees to the post of Deputy Commissioner, (Commercial Tax) as per Commercial Tax Special Rules and G.O.Ms.No.53 Commercial Taxes (E) Department, dated 15.05.2002. 2. Before approaching this Court, the petitioners made representation to the State Government for grant of the relief claimed. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioners contends that till date, no decision has been taken by the respondents on the representation filed by the petitioners. 4. Learned counsel for the respondents, on that other hand, states that seniority list was under challenge before this Court, wherein, operation of impugned order was stayed, therefore, it was not possible to take a decision on the representation filed by the petitioners. 5. This Court has dismissed the writ petitions, challenging fixation of seniority by the State Government. Consequently, there is no impediment in deciding the representation filed by the petitioners. 6. These writ petitions are, accordingly, disposed off by directing the respondents 1 and 2 to take a final decision on the representation filed by the petitioners within a period of two months of the receipt of certified copy of this order. The respondents are further directed to pass a detailed speaking order on the representation. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
