THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU Writ Petition No.19889 OF 2011 ORDER: 1 According to the petitioner, in pursuance of the notifications dated 08.06.2006 and 20.10.2006 issued by the 1st respondent inviting applications for the post of Junior Lineman on contract basis, he submitted an application and thereafter he has attended pole climbing test held on 2nd to 6th of June, 2007. But, he was not qualified in the said test. Challenging the conditions of the notifications, some of the unsuccessful candidates filed a batch of writ petitions and this Court disposed of the writ petitions by restricting the appointments made in pursuance of the notification dated 08.06.2006 and the notifications issued from 20.10.2006 to 30.06.2008. As against the same, the authorities filed writ appeals in W.A.No.1434 of 2008 and batch and they were disposed of by a common order dated 10.11.2009 since the authorities made a proposal for appointment of the respondents therein. Now, as he is totally recovered and in a position to attend the pole climbing test, he gave a representation to the respondents on 16.11.2009 and 18.01.2011 seeking permission to attend the pole climbing test afresh, without reference to the pole climbing test held earlier and give an opportunity for selection and appointment in the existing/arising vacancies in pursuance of the notifications dated 08.06.2006 and 20.10.2006, before issuing a fresh notification. But so far the respondents have not passed any orders on his representation. Being aggrieved by the same, he approached this Court and filed the present writ petition. 2. The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that though this Court, by an order dated 10.11.2009, disposed of W.A.No.1434 of 2008 and batch, basing on the proposal made by the authorities of A.P.Transco to appoint the respondents therein, the respondent have not passed orders so far on the representation of the petitioner. He further submitted that on previous occasions, the respondents extended second opportunity to certain candidates by issuing B.P.Ms.No.36 dated 18.05.1997. 3. On the contrary, the learned standing counsel for A.P. Transco has contended that since the entire selection process was over, question of conducting pole climbing test and appointing anybody as Junior Lineman on contract basis does not arise. 4. May be it is true that the pole climbing test was over and there may not be any vacancies. However, having considered the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, the respondents are hereby directed to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 16.11.2009 and 18.01.2011 and pass necessary orders thereon in accordance with the rules and regulations governing the service conditions of the Junior Line Man, if the petitioner is otherwise eligible and qualified, within a period of six (6) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 5. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________ K.C. BHANU, J 15.07.2011 Kvsn
