Petitioner, a daily wage employee with the respondent-Corporation, filed W.P.No.27078 of 1995, and this Court, by order dated 27-07-1998, directed that the petitioner’s services be regularized in terms of G.O.Ms.No.212 dated 22-04-1994 and the judgment of this Court in Y.Ramana Babu v. University of Health Services. Consequent to the order of this Court, the first respondent considered the case of the petitioner, and in the impugned order dated 19-09- 1998, recorded as a fact that the petitioner had completed five years of service in the respondent-Corporation and that he was in service as on 25-11-1993. The first respondent, however, held that in addition to these conditions, the G.O. also required the person, whose services were sought to be regularized, to possess the prescribed qualifications, to be within the age limit as on the date of appointment and that a clear vacancy should be in existence, that the staff structure of the respondent-Corporation was approved by the Government of Andhra Pradesh, vide G.O.Ms.No.112 dated 08-07-1994, as per which there were no vacancies available. The first respondent held that the petitioner’s services could not be regularized as at present. Sri N.Sreedhar Reddy, learned standing counsel for the respondent-Corporation, would submit that even after the impugned order dated 19-09-1998 was passed no vacancies have arisen in the respondent-Corporation and it is in such circumstances that the petitioner’s case could not be considered for regularization. Learned counsel would further state that in case vacancies arise in future, the respondents would consider the case of the petitioner, for regularization of his services, in accordance with G.O.Ms.No.212 dated 22-04-1994, in as much as the petitioner had complied with the requirement of having put in five years of service in the respondent-Corporation and was in the service of the respondent- Corporation as on 25-11-1993. The submissions of the learned standing counsel for the respondent-Corporation now made across the bar is taken on record and the writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of.
