THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 22054 of 2005 Between: Gali Jayanthi, D/o Rajasree ..... PETITIONER AND The Secretary, State Board of Technical Education & Training, A.P., Hyderabad. .....RESPONDENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 22054 of 2005 ORDER: The petitioner was appointed as Junior Assistant on compassionate grounds. She did not hold the qualification of English Type Writing Higher. She was granted exemption for a limited period and she was required to pass the same on or before 27.07.2003. She did not acquire the qualification by that time. Subsequently, a grace period of two years was granted. The petitioner appeared for the English Type Writing Higher Examination in February, 2005, simultaneously at two centres namely Ongole and Markapur. The petitioner was declared as pass in the said examination. However, the respondent did not issue the certificate on the ground that the petitioner took the examination at two centres simultaneously. She claims to have made a representation on 16.08.2005 and complains that no orders have been passed thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for Technical Education. Even according to the petitioner, she had appeared in the English Type Writing Higher Examination from two centres namely Ongole and Markapur on 4th and 5th February, 2005, respectively. Though the petitioner states that she did so inadvertently, it is difficult to accept the same. The question as to whether the appearance of a candidate simultaneously in the same examination more than once invites any disqualification or the performance at one such examination can be ignored, needs to be considered by the respondent. The representation of the petitioner made in this regard cannot be kept pending indefinitely. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondent to pass appropriate orders on the representation, dated 16.08.2005, made by the petitioner, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No order as to costs. __________ 07.10.2005 DR
