Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.P.BALA KRISHNA MURTHY Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR ROADS & BUILDINGS The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED and THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.15479 of 2008 ORDER: (Per the Hon’ble Sri Justice Ghulam Mohammed) This writ petition is ﬁled challenging the interim order dated 06.02.2008 passed by the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad, in O.A.No.1045 of 2008, whereunder, the Tribunal directed the respondents therein i.e., respondents 2 and 3 herein, to strictly follow the seniority given in the provisional seniority list of AEE’s communicated through Circular Memo No.18693/Ser.V(1)/1995 dated 6.11.2007 in the exigency of making any temporary/adhoc or in-charge arrangements to the post of E.E/S.E/C.E., by rectifying the arrangements already made and to consider the case of the applicant therein i.e, the 1st respondent herein. Sri P.Balakrishna Murthy, learned counsel for the petitioner, contended that the 1st respondent has not impleaded the petitioner and the other aﬀected persons as parties to the said O.A., and therefore, the Tribunal ought not to have granted any interim order without giving any opportunity and without hearing the affected parties. On the other hand, the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents contended that the Tribunal granted only interim order and there is no final determination of the matter, and as such, this writ petition cannot be entertained. A perusal of the record shows that the petitioner and other aﬀected persons ﬁled miscellaneous applications before the Tribunal below to implead them in the said O.A., and also to vacate the interim order dated 06.02.2008, granted therein, and they are still pending. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, without going into the merits of the case, we direct the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad, to dispose of the miscellaneous applications ﬁled in O.A.No.1045 of 2008 within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Till such time, the interim order granted by this Court on 17.07.2008 in W.P.M.P.No.20050 of 2008 in the writ petition shall be continued. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ (Justice Ghulam Mohammed) _________________ (Justice C.V.Ramulu) 30th July 2008.
