IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI NISAR AHMAD KAKRU AND THE HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO.26182 OF 2010 DATED:25.10.2010 Between: C. Chandrasekhar and another … Petitioners And The Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commissioner Rep. by its Secretary Nampally, Hyderabad, and another … Respondents THE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI NISAR AHMAD KAKRU AND THE HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION NO.26182 OF 2010 ORDER: (per the Hon’ble the Chief Justice Shri Nisar Ahmad Kakru) Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission Group-I Examination held in pursuance of Notification No.10/2009 dated 30.12.2008 could not be responded by all the candidates through their physical appearance for writing the examination, because of a chaotic law and order situation, resultantly the Commission took a decision to allow those who could not appear in the examination to write the examination on 25.10.2010. In essence, it is the decision for accommodating those who were prevented by a situation to which they did not contribute. Petitioners two in number are aggrieved, hence, this public interest litigation. Petitioner No.2 is a candidate who has written the examination on 5.9.2010. He wants both the examinations to be cancelled on the ground that those who are scheduled to appear in examination today are appearing in a peaceful atmosphere. The petition filed by him is simply to be rejected because the candidates who are going to appear in the examination today, could not appear in the examination earlier and if the petitioner would have been one amongst them he too would get the same treatment. Peaceful atmosphere is something which is not explained by the petitioners and it need not detain us because in the Examination Hall what is required is no unfair means and no interference from outsiders. There is no averment alleging interference with the conducting of examination on 5.9.2010. Apparently the staff assigned the job to conduct the examination has successfully ensured peace in the Examination Hall. Petitioner No.1 happens to be the former Member of the Public Service commission. What promoted him to file the writ petition, we find no substance which could justify the invocation of writ jurisdiction of this Court on his part. In the aforementioned backdrop, the writ petition is dismissed. VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR, J NISAR AHMAD KAKRU, CJ 25-10-2010 B. Narsinga Rao
