Respondents THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE NOUSHAD ALI Writ Petition No.1336 of 2011 ORDER : With the consent of both the learned counsel, the matter is disposed of at the admission stage. The petitioner, who suffered an order of termination of his service, later reinstated in appeal, has filed this Writ Petition to declare the action of the respondents in not giving the benefit of continuity of service on his re-engagement, as illegal. The service of the petitioner as a Contract Conductor was terminated by orders dated 24-12-2008 on the allegation of absenteeism. He filed an appeal and the same was allowed by the 1st Respondent by orders dated 17-04-2010 directing his-re-engagement. Since the said order did not advert to the continuity of service, it is stated that the petitioner’s re-engagement was treated as a fresh appointment. Heard Sri P.Venkateshwer Rao, learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri K.Madhava Reddy, learned standing counsel for the Respondents. Both the counsel fairly submit that the issue involved and the relief sought for in this Writ Petition is squarely covered by a decision of this Court in W.P.No.32579 of 2010, dated 24-12-2010. In view of the said submission, this Writ Petition is allowed directing that the petitioner shall be entitled to the benefit of service between the termination and the date of his re-engagement. However, the petitioner shall not be entitled to any monetary benefits on account of the said benefit. No costs. ________________ NOUSHAD ALI, J. 28th January, 2011. skmr
