4. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court directs the 2nd respondent herein to consider the petitioner's representation dated 20.12.2016 on merits and in accordance with law, after giving an opportunity of hearing to the parties concerned and pass appropriate orders, as expeditiously as possible.
