State of Andhra Pradesh rep., by its Principle Secretary, Higher Education Secretariat, Hyderabad and others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.18496 of 2007 ORDER: This writ petition has been filed seeking a Mandamus to declare the action of 1st respondent in not implementing the enhanced age of superannuation to the University Teachers working in 5th respondent University keeping in view the letter No.F.1-22/97-U1, dated 27.7.1998 addressed by 2nd respondent to all the Education Secretaries of all the states and No.F.1.22/97-U.1, dated 27.7.1998 addressed by 2nd respondent to 3rd respondent which has been communicated by covering letter No.F.3/94 P.S (Vol.9) dated 4.4.2006 by 3rd respondent to all the Central deemed Universities as arbitrary and illegal. According to the petitioner, he is working as Associate Professor in 5th respondent-University. Though, the Government of India has recommended for enhancement of age of retirement of the University Teachers from 60 to 62 years, the same was not extended to the petitioner. There is no necessity to go into all the details. It appears that on a representation being made by the Teachers, the Government of Andrha Pradesh has already taken a decision in G.O.Ms.No. 150 dated 18.8.2007 not to extend the benefit of enhancement of age of superannuation from 60 to 62 years and rejected the same as it results in heavy financial commitment on the exchequer. Therefore, nothing survives in the writ petition for adjudication and it is accordingly dismissed leaving liberty to the petitioner to challenge the GO issued by the Government of Andhra Pradesh. No costs. _________ 11-09-2007 rkk
