The present Original Application has been filed by the applicant underSection 19of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985 making therein a\n\n     prayer for quashing of the order dated 10.12.2019 (Annexure A-2).

At the very outset, Sh. A.R.

Grievance of the applicant is that the said representation has been\n\n     declined by the Superintendent of Post Offices, Vijayapura Division,\n\n     Vijayapura on the ground of delay only and the order being arbitrary\n\n     cannot be sustained.4. Learned counsel further submitted that the applicant will be satisfied if\n\n     the present Original Application is disposed of with a direction to\n\n     Superintendent of Post Offices, Vijayapura Division, Vijayapura to\n\n     revisit the order dated 10.12.2019 and pass an order on merits while\n\n     taking into consideration the observations made by the Chief Post\n\n     Master General, Karnataka Circle, Bengaluru vide FMM/03/03-\n\n     2019/CPMG/FNP O/P-III (Annexure A-3).35. Keeping in view the aforestated limited prayer made by learned\n\n       counsel for the applicant, we deem it appropriate to dispose of the\n\n       present Original Application without entering into the merits of the case.6. Accordingly, the Original Application is disposed of with a direction to\n\n       Superintendent of Post Offices, Vijayapura Division, Vijayapura to\n\n       revisit the order dated 10.12.2019 and pass an order on merit while\n\n       keeping in view the observations made by the Chief Post Master\n\n       General,     Karnataka      Circle,    Bengaluru,      vide   FMM/03/03-\n\n       2019/CPMG/FNP O/P-III (Annexure A-3).7.
