THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No.14885 of 1999 ORDER: This writ petition has been instituted by a part time lecturer in Commerce Department in Dr.B.R.Ambedkar College, which is an aided educational institution. She has called in question the Notification published on 13.07.1999 by the second respondent- Commissioner of Collegiate Education inviting applications from eligible candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste only. Since the writ petitioner has been working for a very long time as a part time lecturer in Commerce against the very same vacancy, she has called in question the correctness and validity of this notification asserting that the vacancy is not liable to be reserved or earmarked to be filled in by Scheduled Caste candidates only. This writ petition has been pending for more than 10 years. So far, there is no stay that has been granted by this Court against the said recruitment process. If the post of lecturer in Commerce Department in the first respondent college is reserved to be filled in validly by a candidate belonging to Scheduled Caste, then other candidates who do not belong to Scheduled Caste cannot call that in question. Since the State Government makes available the funds by way of grant-in-aid, as a policy measure, it directed all such vacant posts also to be filled in duly following the principles of reservation in favour of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Backward Classes. No exception can be taken thereto. But, however, should there be any irregularity noticed in the matter of application of the roaster system, a grievance can be made out by a candidate, who may not really belong to Scheduled Caste. Such disputes can only be facts based. Normally, in a writ petition questions of fact are incapable of being decided. It is therefore appropriate for the writ petitioner to take up the matter with the Commissioner of Collegiate Education, Government of Andhra Pradesh, who is the competent authority to sanction prior permission for filling up of the teaching and non-teaching posts, which are admitted to grant in aid. As and when any such representation is made, no doubt the Commissioner would look into it and appropriately redress the grievance within a maximum period of three months thereafter. With the above observation, the writ petition stands disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO, J Date: 15.07.2010 va
