THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.28107 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner was working as Driver in Parkal Depot of A.P.S.R.T.C. He was declared medically unfit, vide certificate dated 31-07-2009. The Corporation issued circulars, providing for payment of additional monetary benefit to such drivers. It is also open to the employees, who are rendered medically disqualified, to seek employment in other categories. The petitioner has chosen to receive the additional monetary benefit, and retired from service on 01-04- 2010. The petitioner submitted a representation dated 25-10-2010, stating that he was ill-advised to opt for additional monetary benefit, and that he is willing to continue in service in other post, by returning the amount, received by him. He contends that he maintained good track record, and was even rewarded on several occasions. His grievance is that no action has been taken on the representation. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. As between the two alternatives, that are available to the petitioner, viz., to continue in service in any other post, or to receive additional monetary benefit, the petitioner has chosen the latter, on being medically declared unfit. The question as to whether it is open to change the option, at this stage, and whether the Corporation is willing to accommodate the petitioner in any other capacity; is a matter, that cannot be determined by this Court. The representation made by the petitioner needs to be considered, duly taking into account the relevant factors. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to consider the representation made by the petitioner on 25-10-2010, and pass appropriate orders, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as costs. ________________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.03-12-2010. KO
