Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of only by directing the 3rd respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 06.07.2017 and pass orders on the same on merits and in accordance with law, after giving due opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. Such exercise shall be done by the 3rd respondent within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
