THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.31613 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is working as Sub-staff, on daily wage basis, in Kadapa Branch of Bank of India. Recently, the respondents have initiated steps for recruitment of Sub-staff, on regular basis. The petitioner states that he has submitted an application within the stipulated time. His grievance is that the respondents are not considering his case, on the ground that his name was not sponsored by the Employment Exchange. Heard Smt.K.Udaya Sri, the learned counsel for the petitioner, and Sri S.Surya Prakash Rao, the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. There was some uncertainty, as to whether a candidate, who is not sponsored by the employment exchange, can insist on his name being considered, in response to such notifications. Recently, this Court has reviewed the Law, in this aspect, and took the view that it is not necessary that a candidate must be sponsored through employment exchange, and that he can straight away submit an application. Following the same, the Writ Petition is allowed and the respondents are directed to consider the case of the petitioner also, in case he submitted application within the stipulated time, and if he is otherwise eligible. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J Dt:15.12.2010. Note: Furnish C.C. by tomorrow. (B/o) GJ
