THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 4159 of 2010 Date: 25.2.2010 Between: Annamaneni Siva Rama Krishna ... Petitioner and Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd.. and another. ...Respondents THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 4159 OF 2010 ORDER: The respondents issued a notification dated 5.10.2009 inviting applications for appointment of retail outlet dealers for various places including the one at Toopran-Ramayampet, Medak District. The petitioner and various others submitted applications. One of the conditions was that a candidate must file an affidavit in the prescribed form typed on a non- judicial stamp paper. The petitioner, however, enclosed an affidavit, which does not accord with the stipulated form. Through letter dated 8.2.2010, the respondents informed the petitioner that his application has not been considered on account of the defective affidavit. The petitioner challenges the same. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The only defect pointed out against the petitioner is about the content of the affidavit. The respondents have prescribed a particular form of affidavit. The petitioner was not supposed to deviate from it. Even assuming that the deviation on the part of the petitioner is trivial in nature, the fact remains that the interviews have already been conducted on 25.2.2010. Though the impugned letter was communicated to the petitioner much in advance, he has chosen to approach this Court at a belated stage. Learned Standing Counsel for the respondents, however, has placed before this Court, a list of the candidates who are placed at Sl. Nos. 1 to 4. Since valuable rights have accrued to the selected candidates, this Court cannot entertain the writ petition at this stage. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY,J DATE: 25.2.2010 pnb
