JUDGMENT
Dated this the 5th day of March, 2026 The petitioner, who was the Assistant Secretary of the 1st respondent-Society, states that she was dismissed from service of the Society as per Ext.P6 order. The petitioner preferred Ext.P7 statutory appeal before the 2nd respondent.
2. According to the petitioner, the statutory appeal was heard by the 2nd respondent on 28.06.2025, as discernible from Ext.P8 notice. Though eight months have lapsed since the date of hearing, no final orders are passed.
3. The petitioner states that the petitioner has been directed to remain out of service in view of Ext.P6 order of termination. Unless the statutory appeal is heard expeditiously and orders passed thereon, the petitioner will be put to untold hardship and loss.
4. Taking into consideration the facts of the case and Ext.P7 being a statutory appeal, it would be only just and proper that the 2nd respondent considers the same in accordance with law and passes appropriate orders within a reasonable time. In view of the nature of the relief to be granted in this writ petition, notice to the respondents are dispensed with.
In the facts of the case, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to consider Ext.P7 and pass final orders thereon pursuant to the hearing already conducted, within a period of two months, if orders are not passed on Ext.P7 so far.
