I have heard Sri Venkateswarlu Sanisetty, learned counsel for the petitioner, and Smt Akella Padma, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The petitioner is an unsuccessful applicant for the post of Typist and Junior Assistant in the office of the District Collector, Prakasam. One Victoria Rani was selected and appointed as Typist and Junior Assistant. The petitioner on coming to know that the selected candidate has allegedly submitted a fake certificate issued in the name of the Board of Intermediate Education and obtained employment by playing fraud, approached respondent No.2 for furnishing information as to whether the certified copy of the certificate produced by the selected candidate was genuine or not. The said information was declined to be furnished by respondent No.2 vide his order, dated 19.07.2010. The petitioner stated that she has filed an application before respondent No.1, who is stated to be the appellate authority under the Act for the same relief. On the ground that the said application has not been disposed of, the petitioner filed this writ petition. On the petitioner’s own pleadings, respondent No.1 is the appellate authority under the Act. Therefore, the petitioner has to file an appeal before the said respondent and if such an appeal is filed, the appellate authority shall consider and dispose of the same in accordance with the provisions of the Act. As no formal appeal has been filed by the petitioner, she is permitted to file such an appeal within a period of two weeks from today. If such an appeal is filed, respondent No.1 shall consider and dispose of the same in the light of the provisions of the Act, within a period of two weeks thereafter. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.37483 of 2010 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) Date: 25.11.2010. VGB
