Masood Ali ……….Petitioner And State of AP, rep. by its Secretary to Government, Hyderabad an others. ………Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR Writ Petition No.4840 OF 2011 ORDER : (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice Ghulam Moham) This writ petition is filed challenging the legality and validity of the order dated 20-01-2011 in M.A.No.2473 of 2010 on the file of the AP Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad (fore brevity ‘the Tribunal’). 2. The brief facts of the case are that the petitioner filed O.A.S.R.No.12601 of 2010 before the Tribunal challenging the Memo dated 22-06-1999 issued by the 1st respondent, wherein the 1st respondent rejected the request made by the petitioner for his reinstatement into service in terms of the order of the Tribunal in O.A.No.2624 of 1998, dated 13-04- 1998. Along with O.A.S.R., he also filed M.A.No.2473 of 2010 to condone the delay of 10 years 2 months and 2 days for filing the O.A. The Tribunal dismissed the M.A.No.2473 of 2010. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner approached this Court and filed the present writ petition. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Services-I and perused the record. 4. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner and on perusal of the record, it is made clear that the Tribunal while dismissing the said application, did not assign any cogent reasons. It is simply stated in the impugned order that there are no proper grounds to explain the delay. Hence, without going into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition by directing the Tribunal to number the appeal (O.A.S.R.No.12601 of 2010) and proceed with the matter for disposal of the same in accordance with law. 5. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________________ JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED Dated:01-03-2011 ________________________ JUSTICE K.G.
