They claim to have made a representation, dated 22-12- 2005, narrating their grievance and allege that no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. Basically, it is for the employer to frame a scheme or to formulate a policy in the matter of making recruitment to different categories of posts. The petitioners draw analogy from the procedure prescribed for appointment of Sub- Engineers of Electrical side. The question as to whether the respondents are under obligation to adopt the same procedure in relation to the posts of Sub- Engineers in the other categories, needs to be examined. This Court cannot express any opinion, at this stage. The representation of the petitioners deserves to be considered, without any further delay. For the foregoing reasons, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents herein to pass appropriate orders on the representation, dated 22- 12-2005, submitted by the petitioners, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
