THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION Nos.26339 and 26367 of 2011 COMMON ORDER: For the benefit of the Andhra Pradesh Power Generation Corporation Limited, respondent No.1 herein, vast extent of land was acquired at Chelpur of Warangal District. There exists a scheme for providing employment to land oustees or their children by respondent No.1 to the extent of half of the existing vacancies. The petitioners, who are not the land oustees, apprehend that the respondents may fill all the available vacancies with the land oustees only. They seek appropriate directions. After making reference to certain proceedings and correspondence, the petitioners insist that the respondents cannot appoint land losers exceeding 50% limit and that they should not be replaced by anyone. The respondents filed a counter-affidavit stating in clear terms that 50% quota would not be exceeded for the land oustees. It is also stated that the petitioners, who are working as Contract Labour, would not be displaced, except where it becomes essential to accommodate the land oustees to the extent of 50% quota. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The apprehension of the petitioners is that the respondents may exceed 50% quota in the context of making appointments or engaging Contract Labour. The apprehension appears to be misplaced in view of the clear and unequivocal undertaking given by the respondents. Therefore, the writ petitions are disposed of, recording the undertaking given on behalf of the respondents to the effect that they will not exceed 50% of the existing vacancies for accommodating the land losers. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J Dt:21.09.2011 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION Nos.26339 and 26367 of 2011 Date: 21.09.2011 JSU
