Judgment 1. Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the first respondent. 2. At this stage of the hearing of the writ petition, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner had submitted that it would suffice, if the first respondent is directed to dispose of the application No.5852, dated 16.4.2012, on merits, within a specified period. 3. The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing on behalf of the first respondent has no objection for such an order being passed by this Court. 4. In view of the submissions made by the learned counsels appearing on either side, the first respondent is directed to dispose of the application No.5852, dated 16.4.2012, on merits and in accordance with law, after giving an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner as well as the second respondent, and the other persons concerned, if any, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. However, it is made clear that this Court, by this order, has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the matter. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. No costs.
