Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.TADDI.NAGESWARA RAO Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR WOMEN DEV. & CHILD WELFARE The Court made the following : O R D E R: The 1st respondent issued a notification, inviting applications for the posts of Anganwadi Workers, for several places in Vizianagaram District. The petitioner submitted her application for the post of K.Palavalasa Village of Garividi Mandal. It is stated that interviews were held on 22.12.2007. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the results for the post, for all other villages have been declared, the one for K.Palavalasa village was not declared, as yet, and seeks appropriate direction, in this regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Women & Child Welfare. The petitioner responded to a notification issued for the purpose of filling the posts of Anganwadi workers, in various villages. Interviews are said to have been conducted on 22.12.2007. Once the respondents have undertaken selection for a group of villages, they cannot segregate the process for one of the villages. In case, any impediment exists for declaration, it needs to be notified, particularly to the affected candidates. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the 1st respondent to declare the results of the interviews held on 22.12.2007, for the post of Anganwadi worker for K. Palavalasa village, within a period of two weeks, from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. In case, there exist any reasons for not declaring the results, they shall be communicated to the petitioner, within the same time. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ 1st May 2008 PAN
