GOVERNMENT PLEADER MR.P.NANDAKUMAR THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/10/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: tss V. GIRI, J. `````````````````````````````````````````````````` W.P.(C) No. 27846 of 2009 A `````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 6th day of October, 2009 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is presently working as a First Grade Draftsman in the Local Self Government Department and he was deployed from the Public Works Department. The petitioner has completed six years and ten months on deployment and he is entitled to be repatriated to his parent department, he contends. Earlier, he was included in Ext.P7 list of First Grade Overseers(non-optees), who have completed six years in the Local Self Government Department. It seems that the petitioner was not repatriated because he was found falling short of six years by five days. But, now the petitioner is the senior most in the Local Self Government Department and it seems that another person has been deployed from the Public Works Department as well. 2. Bearing in mind these facts, the 3rd respondent shall look into Ext.P9 representation and take appropriate action, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (V.GIRI, JUDGE) aks
