The Collector, Gadchiroli and others. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's order Judge's orders and Registrar's order ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Coram : A.P. Lavande And Prasanna B. Varale, JJ. Dated : 17th January, 2009. Heard Mr. Solat, learned counsel for the petitioner, Mr. Deshpande, learned AGP for respondent no.1 and Mr. Mokadam, learned counsel for respondents 2 and 3. By this petition, the petitioner seeks directions against the respondents to consider his claim and also direction to issue appointment order for the post of Live Stock Supervisor. Pursuant to the advertisement issued by the respondents 2 and 3 for various posts including Live Stock Supervisor, interviews were held and select list was prepared, in which the petitioner appeared at Sr. No.1 in the waiting list. The affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents discloses that there were 15 vacancies, out of which one post was reserved for project affected persons and for the said post Shri Nathu Dinbaji Lohare was selected and accordingly appointed. According to 2 the respondents, there is no post available to accommodate the petitioner whose name appears in the waiting list at Sr. No.1. It is well settled that mere selection of a person for a particular post does not entitle a person to get appointment to the post. The replies filed on behalf of the respondents disclose that the presently there is no vacancy for the post of Live Stock Supervisor for project affected person. In view of the above position, we do not find any merit in the writ petition. Hence, the writ petition is rejected. JUDGE JUDGE Ambulkar.
