HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO AND HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE G.BHAVANI PRASAD WRIT PETITION Nos.14161 and 14321 of 2000 COMMON ORDER: (Per Hon’ble Mr.Justice B.Prakash Rao) Heard both sides. Since common question is involved in these two writ petitions, they have been taken up together for disposal. The petitioners herein who are the Union of India and others filed this writ petition inter alia seeking to assail the orders in O.A.No.592 of 1998 dated 01/09/1999 and O.A.No.536 of 1998 dated 02/11/1999 on the file of the Central Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad Bench. The respondents herein who are claiming to be the individuals who appeared for the selection in pursuance of a notification stated to have been issued on 17/06/1991 for filling up the posts of 40 kalasi filed the said application inter alia seeking a direction to finalise the said selections and issue the necessary orders of appointment. The said application after contest was allowed by the Tribunal with certain directions to consider their case if found otherwise eligible. Hence, the writ petitions. Learned Standing Counsel appearing for the petitioners submit that in regard to the very same employment notice dated 17/06/1991 in another matter this Court has set aside similar such order granted in O.A.No.462 of 1996 as per the orders in W.P.No.16133 of 1999 dated 18/06/2009. Though the learned counsel appearing for the respondents herein tried to distinguish that judgment on the ground that in the said case the respondents/employees therein were not represented and therefore, it is an ex parte order and therefore, it would not be the same. Even otherwise, having regard to the facts and circumstances, where there is no distinction in regard to the selection made in pursuance of the notification issued on 17/06/1991 and for the subsequent events, it could not have been taken into consideration for denying the entitlement. Having considered the submissions made and also on perusal of the material on record, we are of the view that in the other case this Court has already taken into consideration of such objections including as to the availability of the surplus etc., and rejected the same. In view of the same, we do not find any merits in the submissions on behalf of the respondents. Both the Writ Petitions are accordingly allowed following the judgment in W.P.No.16133 of 1999 dated 18/06/2009 and the orders in O.A.No.592 of 1998 dated 01/09/1999 and O.A.No.536 of 1998 dated 02/11/1999 are set aside. No order as to costs. _________________ B.PRAKASH RAO, J ____________________ G.BHAVANI PRASAD, J Date: 26-11-2009 SKM
