HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU WRIT PETITION No.20419 of 2011 ORDER: Heard both sides. This writ petition is filed seeking to issue a writ of Mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in regularizing the services of the petitioner with effect from 01.01.1998 instead of from 16.04.1996 as illegal, arbitrary and contrary to law. The grievance of the petitioner is that his services were regularized with effect from 01.01.1998 instead of from 16.04.1996. In that regard, the petitioner had made a representation to the respondent-Corporation on 17.01.2007, but action has not been taken on it so far. A representation, dated 17.01.2007, is submitted by the petitioner to the first respondent with regard to the modification of date of regularization of his services. Therefore, appropriate decision has to be taken by the first respondent as to from what date the services of the petitioner were to be regularized. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the first respondent to take appropriate decision on the representation of the petitioner, dated 17.01.2007, and pass necessary orders if the same is available with him, in accordance with law, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and communicate the same to the petitioner. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ JUSTICE K.C.BHANU 20th July 2011 DR
