Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- ORDER Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks a mandamus for his appointment to the post of Lecturer-in-Physical Education (School Cadre). It is averred that while the petitioner got 75.437% marks, the last selected candidate to whom appointment has been offered, has got 71.30% marks only but the petitioner has been denied appointment in a totally discriminatory manner. It is further averred that some similarly situated candidates approached this Court and pursuant to the orders dated 13.8.2008 (Annexure P-10), they have got appointments. The petitioner has also represented the respondents on 30.9.2009 (Annexure P-12) but no action has been taken so far. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and keeping in C.W.P.No .2855 of 2010 2 view the nature of relief sought in the writ petition, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to respondent No.2 to consider the claim of the petitioner for appointment on the post of Lecturer in Physical Education in the light of the decision of this Court in CWP No.19688 of 2006 (Amandeep Kaur and others versus State of Punjab and others) decided on 13.8.2008 (Annexure P-10) and also keeping in view the appointment letter dated 21.9.2009 said to have been issued to some of the similarly situated candidates. The needful shall be done as early as possible, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly.
