SRI.M.RAJAGOPALAN NAIR, SC FOR K. UTY. FOR R1 TO 3 THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 12/11/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ============== W.P.(C) NO. 30757 OF 2008 (J) ==================== Dated this the 12th day of November, 2008 J U D G M E N T Heard both sides. 2. Petitioner was working on daily wages as a temporary Assistant in the respondent University. However, his service has since been dispensed with. According to the petitioner, this has been done at a time when similarly situated persons working as Data Entry Operators were retained in service. Being a handicapped person undergoing treatment for cancer, petitioner submits that his circumstances are pitiable and he has made Ext.P7 representation requesting that he be allowed to continue in service. 3. In this writ petition though substantial reliefs are sought for, I feel it appropriate that Ext.P7 be considered by the Vice Chancellor of the University. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the Vice Chancellor of the University shall take up, consider and pass orders on Ext.P7. This shall be done, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within one month of receipt of a copy of this judgment. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
