S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------- WP(C) No. 22804 of 2007 --------------------------------- Dated, this the 5th day of October, 2007 J U D G M E N T Petitioners have approached this Court seeking appointment as UPSAs in the vacancies earmarked for persons with disabilities. They have been sponsored by the Employment Exchange for the available posts and they have been included in the list prepared for that purpose after conducting an interview. The petitioners' grievance is that no steps have been taken for making appointments from the said list. The learned Government Pleader, on the basis of counter affidavit filed, submits that the process of making appointment to seven vacancies of UPSA are going on and the list has been forwarded to the Government and that a final decision thereon would be taken by the Government shortly. In the above circumstances, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the Secretary, Social Welfare Department, Government of Kerala, to finalise the appointments to the said seven vacancies, as per the list stated to have been forwarded, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE) jg
