The appellant/petitioner approached this court contending that even though his juniors like respondent No.4 are working in the Agriculture Department, he was deployed to Local Self Government Department without considering his seniority. He specifically mentioned that he did not submit any option, but, along with the statement filed by the fourth respondent, the option exercised by the petitioner for deployment to Local Self Government Department was produced. So, he has opted for deployment. There is no case that his juniors who have opted were not deployed. In the above circumstances, we see no ground to interfere in the interim order passed by the learned single Judge. The appeal is dismissed. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE P.N.RAVINDRAN JUDGE tks
