J U D G M E N T The petitioner is working as a Drilling Assistant in the Ground Water Department at its District Office at Palakkad. He is a B.Tech degree holder with diploma in PGDeG course. According to the petitioner, the Government had deputed the petitioner for the said course at the expense of the Government. The same is taken by employees like the petitioner for the purpose of qualifying themselves for appointment to the supervisory cadres in the Government Department. At present, the 2nd respondent has invited applications for the post of System Manager (IT). The petitioner has submitted Exts.P7 and P7(a) representations to the 2nd respondent staking a claim for appointment to the said post. The petitioner complains that no reply has been received by him till date. He seeks the issue of a direction WP(C).No.25955/2011-T. 2 for consideration of his requests. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. 3. In view of the fact that Exts.P7 and P7(a) are pending consideration of the second respondent, it is sufficient that they are directed to be considered and disposed of expeditiously. 4. This writ petition is accordingly disposed of directing the second respondent to consider the request of the petitioner set out in Exts.P7 and P7(a) representations in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
