According to the petitioner, in accordance with the Government order dated 02.08.2005 the petitioner is entitled to regularization in service. Although a regular post of Part-time Sweeper has been created in the office of the 3rd respondent, instead of regularizing the service of the petitioner, the respondents have initiated steps to fill up the post through Employment Exchange. Against the same, the petitioner has filed Ext.P6 petition before the 2nd respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P6 as expeditiously as possible and to stay appointments pursuant to Ext.P5 till such disposal. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the W.P.(C)No.619 of 2011 -2- 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P6 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner. Till orders are so passed, no appointment shall be made to the post of Part-time Sweeper in which the petitioner claims regularization. Sd/- S. SIRI JAGAN JUDGE //True copy// P.A. TO JUDGE shg/
