THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE B. PRAKASH RAO AND THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT APPEAL No. 673 of 2006 Between: The Depot Manager, APSRTC, Ramachandrapuram, East Godavari District & another. … APPELLANT AND Smt. Narla Lalitha … RESPONDENT ORDER: (PER THE HONOURABLE BPR,J) Heard both sides and at their request the main appeal itself is taken up for disposal. This appeal is filed by the appellant – Corporation assailing the orders dated 20.08.2005 passed in WP.No.9801 of 1999, wherein the respondent herein sought for appointment to the post of Sweeper was ordered directing the appellant herein to consider the case of the respondent herein if not already considered and pass appropriate orders appointing her in any suitable post in terms of the stand taken by the appellant – Corporation in the counter-affidavit that she stands at Sl.No.12 and her case will be considered as per turn. Now the learned standing appearing on behalf of the appellant – Corporation contended that having regard to the directions given by the Government of A.P. in letter No.4063/Tr.II(2)/2005-1, Transport Roads and Buildings (TR.II) Department, dated 30.07.2005, no compassionate appointments can be considered. It is seen that the orders of the Government are much later to the main cause which has arose in this case, and therefore, they do not have any application to the facts of the present case. More so, when the appellant – Corporation is willing to provide such compassionate appointment, the respondent has got a fair chance in accordance with the seniority. Even otherwise, the learned Standing Counsel appearing for the appellant did not convince this Court as to how and under what provision such directions were given by the Government to the appellant – Corporation. Hence, we do not find any merit in the appeal and the same is accordingly dismissed. _____________________ B. PRAKASH RAO, J _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J Date: 19.06.2006 ES
