JUDGMENT The petitioner is presently working as Junior Superintendent in the Collectorate at Alappuzha. He is in the cadre of Deputy Tahsildar/Junior Superintendent in the Land Revenue Service. Ext.P3 is the proceedings of the Land Revenue Commissioner dated 19.5.2008 by which the seniority list in the cadre of Deputy Tahsildar/Junior Superintendent between 1.1.1988 to 31.12.2006 has been published. The proceedings show various details considered for preparing the same. By Ext.P3 itself, objections have been called for from the respective employees specifying that the outer time limit for filing objections is 31.6.2008. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner’s name is not included in Ext.P3 and therefore he was not served with a copy of the said list from the office concerned and he could not get any information regarding the same. Immediately after getting information, he has filed Ext.P4 objection before the Land Revenue Commissioner. 3. The petitioner contends that while issuing the provisional seniority list as per Ext.P3, the directions issued by this court in Ext.P1 judgment WPC 3828/2009 2 have not been complied with. Any way, this is a matter for the Land Revenue Commissioner to consider while considering the objections to the provisional seniority list. 4. In the above view of the matter, there will be a direction to the second respondent to consider Ext.P4 objections in accordance with law while finalysing the provisional seniority list. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
