THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA W.P. No. 8638 of 2006 Oral order: The petitioner contending that the representation dated 24.12.2005 made by him to the respondents seeking to appoint him as Sub Engineer on preferential basis in the existing or future vacancies on par with other contract labour by giving weightage, has not been disposed of till date, he filed the present writ petition. When the writ petition is taken up for hearing none appear for the respondents. The respondents filed counter. The learned Standing Counsel for the respondents reiterating the counter averments submitted that the petitioner has not submitted any representation dated 24.12.2005, and as such, the petitioner cannot contend that his request representation was not considered. Having heard the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents and having regard to the stand taken by the respondents in their counter that the petitioner has not submitted any representation, much less representation dated 24.12.2005, the respondents can neither be said to have considered the representation of the petitioner nor can a direction be given to the respondents to consider the representation of the petitioner. The writ petition is devoid of merit, and the same is accordingly dismissed. No costs. _________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated: 3rd January, 2007. KSR
