PLEADER SHRI.SANDESH RAJA THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 25/01/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ================== W.P.(C).No.2509 of 2011 ================== Dated this the 25th day of January, 2011 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is presently working as an anganavadi worker in a permanent post under the 2nd respondent for the last 16 years. The petitioner alleges that on account of political considerations, the 3rd respondent has been appointed as an anganavadi helper and promoted as anganavadi worker. The 2nd respondent wants to accommodate the 3rd respondent in the vacancy occupied by the petitioner. Therefore, the petitioner was forced to take leave and the 3rd respondent was accommodated in that post. The petitioner submits that realising the fact that ultimately the intention of the 2nd respondent is to oust the petitioner, the petitioner has filed Ext.P2 representation before the 1st respondent seeking cancellation of the leave and to allow the petitioner to continue as before. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2 expeditiously. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment.
