THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18094 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner was appointed as Conductor in the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (for short ‘the Corporation’) in the year 1986. On 03.06.2006, he underwent surgery for an ailment in Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS). On 21.08.2006, NIMS certified that the petitioner is fit to discharge lighter duties. It is stated that the petitioner has suffered sickness once again in the recent past. He claims to have made a representation to the respondents to assign him lighter duties and that he is unable to discharge the duties of a Conductor. His grievance is that no action has been taken so far. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. A perusal of the medical certificate issued by NIMS discloses that the petitioner was suggested to discharge lighter duties. Even where Drivers or Conductors are medically found unfit, the Corporation appoints them against other posts as part of its obligation under the Scheme evolved for the Drivers or under Section 47 of the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection and Full Participation) Act, 1995. There is some dispute as to whether the petitioner made a comprehensive representation. Even now, he can make such a representation. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to make a representation ventilating his grievance to the respondents. The respondents, in turn, shall take necessary steps in accordance with law, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of the representation. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt: 19.11.2010. kdl
