RAMANA W.P. No.6688 of 1999 Oral order: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents-APSEB. The petitioner claims to have worked with the respondents- APSEB as contract labour. It is his case that the respondents have considered his case for absorption/selection in the light of B.P. Ms. No. 36, dated 18.05.1997, but till date, the respondents neither issued orders appointing him nor passed any speaking orders rejecting his case. Though the writ petition was admitted long back, but till date no counter is filed. However, the learned Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents submitted that since the respondents are said to have already considered the case of the petitioner for absorption/selection in the light of B.P. Ms. No. 36, dated 18.05.1997, the writ petition be disposed of directing the respondents to pass appropriate speaking orders with respect to the absorption/selection or otherwise of the petitioner, if not already passed. The learned counsel for the petitioner expressed no objection for disposal of the writ petitions with such a direction. In view of the agreed stand taken by both the counsel, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petitions with the following directions: Since the respondents are said to have already considered the case of the petitioner for absorption/selection in the light of B.P. Ms. No. 36, dated 18.05.1997, they shall pass appropriate speaking orders with respect to the absorption/selection or otherwise of the petitioner, if not already passed, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ________________ N.V. RAMANA,J. Dated:05-01-2007 GRK/ISL THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V.RAMANA Writ Petition No.6688 of 1999 Date:05-01-2007
