State of U.P.) filed against the order dated 20.7.2015 passed by the respondent no. 3, District Magistrate, Deoria, under section 3/4 of the U.P. Control of Goondas Act, 1970 by which the petitioner has been externed from District Deoria, for a period of six months, as well as the stay application filed therein. 3. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that although the petitioner has filed an appeal before the respondent no. 2 against the order of externment dated 20.7.2015 passed by the District Magistrate, Deoria, but till date neither the appeal has been heard for admission nor the stay application filed therein has been considered by the respondent no. 2 and the district authorities on account of non-consideration of the stay application filed in the aforesaid appeal are harassing the petitioner, therefore, he has made a prayer before this court that suitable direction may be issued to the respondent no. 2 to decide the appeal within a time bound period fixed by this court or at least to consider the stay application of the petitioner. 4.
