THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.23675 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioners are working as Lower Division Clerks in respondent No.1-Company. For the promotion to the post of Upper Division Clerk, it is essential that a candidate must pass departmental test to be conducted by the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission. The petitioners state that they have appeared in the departmental test held on 08.05.2010 and passed the same. The results are said to have been declared on 08.09.2010. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondents have not considered their cases for promotion on the ground that the results of the departmental test were not published in Udyoga Samacharam. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. The petitioners have not only filed the respective Hall- Tickets on the basis of which they have appeared in the examination, but also a result sheet, dated 08.09.2010, issued by the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission signed by the Additional Secretary. Non-publication of the results in a particular manner has nothing to do with the qualifications held by a candidate. Once, the agency which has conducted the examination has declared the results, the candidate shall be entitled for the benefit thereof. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that the respondents shall consider the case of the petitioners for promotion to the post of Upper Division Clerk in case the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission has declared them as pass and without insisting on publication of the same in Udyoga Samacharam. There shall be no order as to costs. __________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:24.09.2010. kdl
