The Court at the stage of admission made the following O R D E R: I have heard Ms. V. Uma Devi, learned counsel for the writ petitioner, learned Government Pleader for Municipal Administration, Smt. G. Jhansi, learned counsel for the 3rd respondent and Sri K. Durga Prasad, learned counsel for the 4th respondent. The writ petitioner is presently working as a Physical Education Teacher at the Andhra Pradesh Social Welfare Residential School (Girls), Nuzvid in Krishna District. She is a regular employee of the Andhra Pradesh Social Welfare Residential Educational Institutions Society. It appears that there are several vacancies of Physical Education Teachers available in the schools run by Vijayawada Municipal Corporation and, therefore, the writ petitioner appears to have exercised an option to work on deputation basis in those schools. The Secretary of the Andhra Pradesh Social Welfare Residential Educational Institutions Society, the competent authority, has also accorded necessary no objection for the writ petitioner to work as a Teacher in any of the schools run by Vijayawada Municipal Corporation, on 1st September 2007. It will be appropriate, at this stage, to notice that the State Government passed orders through their G.O.Rt. No. 950 Municipal Administration & Urban Development (G2) Department, dated 3rd July 2008, formulating detailed guidelines for the purpose of absorption of Teachers of Government Schools, Z.P. Schools, etcetera in the schools run and managed by the Municipalities and the Municipal Corporations. Therefore, the request of the writ petitioner is currently pending with Respondents No. 1 and 2 and it has been kept pending for fairly long time. It is only appropriate that the representation submitted by the writ petitioner is considered by Respondents No. 1 and 2 at the earliest and appropriate decision is taken thereon and communicated to the writ petitioner as well as the 4th respondent Society. This exercise may be completed within a maximum period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With this, the Writ Petition stands disposed of at the stage of admission. No costs. ---------------------------------- (NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO, J) 21st July 2009 ksld ..... REGISTRAR // TRUE COPY // SECTION OFFICER To 1) 2 CD copies Form-NIC-OGS/WP{LS}
