JUSTICE DAYA CHAUDHARY Present:- Mr. Pardeep Bajaj, Advocate for the petitioner. **** DAYA CHAUDHARY, J.(Oral) Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was fulfilling the requisite qualification for the post of Junior Engineer (Civil) as she has passed Bachelor Degree in Civil Engineering. In spite of having been declared eligible by the respondents and having second rank, her name was not figured in the merit list on the ground that she is having degree whereas the diploma holders have been selected. Learned counsel for the petitioner also submits that a representation dated 12.10.2011 was filed by the petitioner but no order has been passed thereon. It is also the contention of learned counsel for the petitioner that the case of the petitioner is squarely covered by the decision of Full Bench in C.W.P. No.451of 2008 decided on 5.2.2010. Although an averment has been made in the petition that the petitioner has not been considered for selection only on the ground that she is a degree holder but nothing has been conveyed by the respondents. The petitioner has been told verbally that the petitioner is a degree holder and she has not been considered for selection. C.W.P. No.20942 of 2011 -2- Without commenting anything on the merits of the case at this stage and since the representation filed by the petitioner has not been decided so far and the same is annexed as Annexure P.7 with the petition, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to consider and decide the same in accordance with law and pass a speaking order within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of the copy of order.
