(1.) THE writ petition is filed with the following prayers:- I) Issue a writ of certiorari quashing Ext.P1 in so far as it relates to the petitioner.

Petitioner has produced Ext.P6 in the case of one Mr.Mamukoya where the benefit was granted pursuant to direction issued by this court in O.P.No.17524/1997. If that be so there is no point in discriminating the petitioner in case the petitioner is similarly situated. I quash Ext.P3. THEre will be a direction to the first respondent to consider the matter afresh with notice to the petitioner and take appropriate action in the light of Ext.P6 extending a similar treatment to the petitioner in case he is similarly situated. THE needful shall be done within a period of three months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. THE interim order in C.M.P.No.2481/2000 will continue till such time. THE writ petition is disposed of as above.
