This action at the hands of the respondents came to be impugned by the petitioners by filing Civil Writ Petition No. 9687 of 2005. The aforesaid writ petition came to be disposed of, by requiring the C.W.P. No. 248 of 2006 Page numbers respondents to pass a speaking order on the representation addressed by the petitioners. It is, therefore, that the impugned order dated 27.9.2005 (Annexure P-5) has been passed.
