THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C. BHANU WRIT PETITION No.881 OF 2011 ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed seeking to issue writ of mandamus declaring the action of the 3rd respondent office in not issuing call letter for attending the interview for the post of Shramik on the ground that the petitioner is not a local of Karimnagar region as illegal and arbitrary and consequently direct the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner for the post of Shramik on par with candidates selected as per the notification, dated 01-11-2010 . 2. The petitioner was born at Nizamabad District and he completed his studies from 1st class to 10th class at Jagityal, Karimnagar and passed 10th class in March, 1991. He passed I.T.I. in the trade of Diesel Mechanic from the Indur Industrial Institute, Nizamabad in the month of July, 1992. He underwent apprenticeship training in APSRTC, Metpally, Karimnagar District from 07-12-1994 to 06-12-1996. In pursuance of notification issued by the Corporation for filling up posts of Shramik in Nizamabad region, he applied for the same, but he could not get the call letter. On enquiry, he came to know that he was not issued call letter on the ground that he was born and residing in Nizamabad District and not a local of Karimnagar. He is entitled to be considered under 20% quota as mentioned in the notification. He made representation to the 2nd respondent, dated 10-01-2011. He was born in Nizamabad District and produced combined certificate of Nativity, caste and date of birth issued by MRO, Nizamabad. Therefore, the action of the respondents in rejecting his case is illegal. Hence, the writ petition. 3. The respondents filed counter affidavit denying the averments of the petition. It s stated that the petitioner produced documentary evidence in support of his statement that he was in Nizamabad District as per the certificates issued by Tahsildar, Nizamabad. Except SSC memo, there is no evidence to show that the petitioner completed his studies from 1st to 10th class at Jagitial, Karimnagar District. The petitioner has not produced study certificate that he belongs to Karimnagar District. Hence, he was treated a non-local. Call letters were sent to local candidate in open category and to non- local up to 88% for OC and up to 87.71% in respect of BC-D. Whereas the petitioner secured only 83.21% marks. Hence, no call letter was sent to him. Hence, they pray to dismiss the writ petition. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner contended that though the petitioner studied in Karimnagar, his case has not been considered as local and hence, he prays to allow the writ petition. 5. On the other hand, learned standing counsel appearing for the respondents contended that the petitioner failed to produce documentary evidence in support of his contention that he studied from 1st to 10th class and hence, he prays to dismiss the writ petition. 6. It is not in dispute that for the purpose of appointment, 80% quota has to be given to locals and remaining 20% quota has to be given to non-locals in view of adoption of presidential order by the Corporation. As seen from the counter affidavit, as the petitioner failed to submit study certificate from 1st to 10th class, his case has not been considered as he does not come within the meaning of local candidate. When his application does not satisfy the requirement of the notification, question of calling him for interview to the selection process does not arise. It is not the case of petitioner that candidates who secured more marks than the petitioner was called for interview. Petitioner secured only 83.21% of marks and the last candidate called for interview in respect of BC-D category of non-locals secured 87.7% of marks. Hence, the writ petition is devoid of merit and is liable to be dismissed. 7. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. ________________ K.C. BHANU, J DATED: 13-06-2011 Hsd
