THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI W.P.Nos.19761, 25024, 25841, 29610 of 2010 and W.P.No.10591 of 2011 COMMON ORDER : Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Agriculture. 2. These writ petitions arise out of the common cause. Therefore, all the writ petitions are disposed of by this common order. 3. The petitioners were appointed as Adarsha Rythus under a scheme framed by the Government of Andhra Pradesh issued in G.O.Rt.No.284, Agriculture and Cooperation (F.P.II) Department, dated 14.03.2007, and G.O.Rt.No.500, Agriculture and Cooperation (F.P.II) Department, dated 29.04.2008. By means of the impugned orders their services have been terminated on the ground that their performance is rated as poor. The impugned orders are under challenge contending that the petitioners were not afforded an opportunity to explain the alleged poor performance on their part. 4. This issue fell for consideration in a batch of writ petitions in W.P.Nos.21868 of 2009 and batch, and this Court by common order dated 14.07.2010 set aside the impugned orders directing to continue the petitioners till such time a proper opportunity of being heard is given to them, giving liberty to the respondents to pass appropriate orders. Both the learned counsel admit that these writ petitions are squarely covered by the said judgment. 5. In view of the above, the impugned orders are set aside. The respondents are directed to continue the petitioners till such time a proper opportunity of being heard is given to them by way of notices. After considering the explanations, if any, filed by the petitioners, the respondents shall be free to pass appropriate orders. 6. The petitioners are admittedly out of office for some period. The concerned authority may verify the period during which the petitioners were out of office and it is made clear that the petitioners are not entitled for remuneration for the said period. 7. The writ petitions are allowed as above. No costs. _________________________ JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI 18.07.2011.
