Srinivasulu, Stores Officer (Disposal and Tyres), E.No.76147, APSRTC Zonal Stores, Kadapa, resident of Kadapa. .... PETITIONER AND The APSRTC, rep. by its Managing Director, Musheerabad, Hyderabad and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No.6598 of 2006 Order: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. Aggrieved by the orders dated 17.03.2006 passed by respondent No.2 reverting the petitioner to his substantive post of Assistant Engineer (Mech) from the post of Stores Officer for a period of six months, he preferred an appeal under Section 22 of the A.P. State Road Transport Corporation (CC & A) Regulations, 1966, before respondent No.1. The grievance of the petitioner is that so far no orders have been passed in the said appeal. Hence, the petitioner filed the present writ petition seeking a direction to respondent No.1 to dispose of the appeal filed by him and to suspend the operation of the impugned order dated 17.03.2006 till the disposal of the appeal. Since the appeal, filed by the petitioner against the impugned order dated 17.03.2006, is said to be pending consideration before respondent No.1-Managing Director, APSRTC, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing respondent No.1-Managing Director, APSRTC, to consider the said appeal and dispose of the same in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Till such time, the impugned proceedings dated 17.03.2006 are suspended. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Date: 04.04.2006 Nsr
