State and Subordinate Service Rules, 1996, after one month from the date of receipt of the said order. The petitioner was appointed as a Junior Assistant consequent upon the retirement of his father on medical invalidation, under an Executive Order. A full Bench of this Court in GOVERNMENT OF ANDHRA PRADESH AND OTHERS v. D.GOPAIAH , held that appointment on medical invalidation does not satisfy the requirements of Article 16 of the Constitution of India and any scheme formulated by the State providing for such compassionate appointment is unconstitutional. In that view of the matter, the Tribunal held that the O.A. itself is not maintainable and dismissed the application. Inasmuch as the Full Bench held that the appointment made on medical invalidation does not satisfy the requirements of Article 16 of the Constitution of India, this writ petition is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the present writ petition is dismissed at the stage of admission. No costs. ---------------------- J.Chelameswar, J -------------------------------- M.Venkateswara Reddy, J mrk 17th March 2006.
