THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO. 5321 OF 2005 Dated 30th June, 2010 Between: K.Shivalingam …Petitioner And Government of Andhra Pradesh and two others …Respondents The Court made the following ORDER: In this writ petition, the petitioner has questioned Memo No.2330/SES/2004 dated 22.02.2005 issued by respondent No.3-the Government of Andhra Pradesh, whereby his representations for promotion to the post of District Youth Welfare Officer and Ex-Officio Chief Executive Officer were rejected. The case of the petitioner is that he was appointed as Junior Assistant on 17.01.1984 in the Office of the Society for Training and Employment Promotion in the District of Warangal. Later, he was promoted to the post of Senior Assistant on 06.11.1990 and further promoted to the post of Manager on 25.11.1992. From the post of Manager, the petitioner claims that he is entitled to be promoted as Chief Executive Officer. Since the said post was abolished by virtue of G.O.Rt.No.112 dated 13.02.2002 and the same is redesignated as District Youth Welfare Officer and Ex-Officio Chief Executive Officer and the Society was brought under the control of the DRDA, the petitioner filed Writ Petition No.24519 of 2004 challenging the said G.O.Rt. This Court, by interim order dated 04.02.2005 passed in WPMP No.32127 of 2004 in Writ Petition No.24519 of 2004, directed the respondents to consider the representations of the petitioner for promotion to the post of District Youth Welfare Officer and Ex-Officio Chief Executive Officer in the existing vacancy. By the impugned memo, respondent No.3 rejected the representations of the petitioner. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner filed the present writ petition. During the course of arguments, it is brought to the notice of this Court that after passing of the impugned memo, the Managing Director of the Andhra Pradesh Society for Training and Employment Promotion, Hyderabad issued Proceedings No.26/APSTEP/A/05 dated 10.03.2008, wherein it is stated that the petitioner is not eligible for promotion to the post of District Youth Welfare Officer/Chief Executive Officer and his request for promotion will be considered if he is found suitable and eligible as per Service Rules after finalisation of seniority of Managers. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that against the order dated 10.03.2008, the petitioner filed W.P.No.6494 of 2008 before this Court and the same is pending. In view of this subsequent reasoned order rejecting the claim of the petitioner for promotion, which is subject matter of challenge in Writ Petition No.6494 of 2008, the cause in this writ petition does not survive for consideration and the writ petition has become infructuous. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. No order as to costs. ____________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J Dated 30th June, 2010 vrn
