Prasad Anil Kumar who appointed through G.O.Ms.No.113, dated 30.01.2008 and pass such other order or orders as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper in the circumstances of the case.” It is claimed by the petitioner that he is fully qualified for appointment as a Drug Inspector and therefore the respondents ought to have considered his candidature for appointment in the 2nd respondent Department as a Drug Inspector. It is to be noticed that the request of the petitioner has already been considered by the 1st respondent and by letter dated 19.10.2009 informed the petitioner that his request could not be considered as the recruitments are to be made as per G.O.Ms.No.339, Health, Medical & Family Welfare (L-2) Department, dated 28.8.1996. In the circumstances, if aggrieved, the petitioner ought to have challenged the said order passed by the 1st respondent by working out the appropriate remedy as available under law and the Mandamus as prayed for cannot be issued at this stage. Accordingly, granting leave and liberty to the petitioner, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No costs. _____________ G. ROHINI,J. Dt. 31.12.2009 Ivd
