According to them, they entered service on 20.3.1989 and 30.10.1988 respectively. Pursuant to the judgment of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Jacob Vs. Kerala Water Authority [1990 (2) KLT 673] their services were regularized with effect from the date on which they entered service. They refer to Exhibit-P1 in this regard. In Exhibit-P2 Final seniority list of Draftsman Gr.I as on 1.11.2000, according to them, they were assigned due seniority. Apparently, the same was modified at the instance of other persons included in the list, petitioners contend. Such revision was wrong. They have filed Exhibits P6 and P7 before the 1st respondent detailing the entire facts. After having heard the learned standing counsel for the respondents also, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to look into Exhibits P6 and P7 and take a decision thereon, after hearing the petitioners and other affected parties, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
