NO:28986 of 1998 Between G.Kanaka Rao ..Petitioner AND A.P.S.E.B. represented by Member Secretary, Hyderabad and others ..Respondents :: JUDGMENT :: HON’BLE SHRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO W.P. No.28451 and 28986 of 1998 Heard the learned counsel for the parties. The essential grievance of the writ petitioners is that they were reverted from the post of U.D. Clerk to that of L.D. Clerk on the ground that they have not passed the departmental examinations. Sri P.R.Balarami Reddy, learned Standing Counsel for the A.P.S.E.B. submits that after the Supreme Court had rendered its judgment in Civil Appeal Nos.180 and 181 of 1984 dated 27.2.1996, the employees like the writ petitioners are granted exemption from passing the departmental examinations and the exemption orders were passed on 31.1.1999 by virtue of the interim orders dated 13.10.1998 passed by this Court. The petitioners 1 and 2 in W.P.No.28451 of 1998 have also retired from service and the sole petitioner in the second writ petition i.e. W.P.No.28986 of 1998 is due to retire on 31st August, 2008. Thus, the entire cause in the writ petitions has since been appropriately redressed. In view of the fact that the writ petitioners are continued in service without any reversion and in view of the subsequent developments as narrated supra, no further orders are needed in these two writ petitions and these writ petitions are accordingly, dismissed. No costs. _________________________________ NOOTY RAMA MOHANA RAO.J. 28.8.2007 psr
