THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C. BHANU WRIT PETITION No.15063 OF 2011 ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed seeking to issue writ of mandamus declaring the action of the 1st respondent in not allowing the petitioner to join duties w.e.f. 16-04-2011 onwards unless produce the fitness certificate from the respondents 2 and 3 and issue of impugned letter/order, dated 16-04-2011 in Rc. No.B1/787/2010 addressing letter to the respondents 2 and 3 to conduct fitness tests to the petitioner that he is fit to discharge duty as Car driver as illegal, arbitrary and consequently direct the 1st respondent to allow the petitioner to continue him in duty as usual without insisting him to produce fitness certificate from the respondents 2 and 3. 2. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner contended that the petitioner is ready to undergo test to be conducted by the District Medical & Health Officer, Khammam and produce the certificate before the 1st respondent so that necessary action can be taken by the 1st respondent in accordance with law. 3. By virtue of the impugned proceedings, the petitioner was asked to appear before the District Medical & Health Officer, Khammam as to whether he is fit to work as Car driver or not. Instead of approaching the District Medical & Health Officer, Khammam, he filed the present writ petition. Since the petitioner is a driver working with the 1st respondent and that he applied for leave, naturally it requires medical certificate. Whether he is fit to drive the vehicle or not has to be decided by the District Medical & Health Officer, Khammam. 4. Therefore, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the petitioner to appear before the District Medical & Health Officer, Khammam and produce the medical certificate before the 1st respondent for taking further action with regard to his suitable posting. No order as to costs. _______________ K.C. BHANU, J DATED: 28-06-2011 Hsd
