This petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution prays for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents to decide the statutory appeal dated 9.9.2004 (P-4) filed by the petitioner against the order dated 23.6.2004 (P-3) rejecting his claim of disability pension. A further direction has been sought to direct the respondents to release the disability pension of the petitioner. The petitioner has also sent a representation dated 24.4.2006 (P-7) to the respondents for deciding the appeal expeditiously.
