Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.M.VENKATA RAMANA REDDY Counsel for the Respondent Nos.1 and 2: MR.K.MOHAN RAMI REDDY The Court at the admission stage made the following: ORDER: Declaring the action of the respondents in issuing the show cause notice No.A4/4114/2003, dated 28.07.2003, as illegal and arbitrary, the present writ petition is filed. Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing Counsel for the respondents. It is only a show cause notice, issued to the petitioner, calling for his explanation within 15 days, as to why the orders, issued in proceedings No.A2/1218/91, dated 01.01.1992, should not be cancelled, treating him as NMR WI, as he does not possess the requisite qualifications to continue him as regular Non-Technical Work Inspector. Thereafter, the petitioner gave a representation to the respondents. It is for the respondents to take appropriate decision thereon in accordance with law. According to the learned counsel for the petitioner, in pursuance of the show cause notice, no decision or order has been passed. Therefore, without entering into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition, with a direction to the respondents to take appropriate decision in pursuance of the show cause notice, dated 28.07.2003, duly considering the representation of the petitioner, dated 18.08.2003, within a period of 2 (two) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. However, all the contentions raised in this writ petition are left open. With the above observations, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs.
