I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as Sri K.Madava Reddy learned standing counsel appearing for the Corporation. As could be seen from the material on record, the petitioner made a detailed representation on 27.03.2009 requesting the respondents to provide him alternative employment in terms of Section 47 of the Act. It also appears that the said representation was received in the Officer of the respondents on 30.03.2009. In the circumstances, it is for the respondents to consider the request of the petitioner and to pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion as to the tenability of the petitioner’s claim, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to consider the petitioner’s representation dated 27.03.2009 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of this order. No costs. _____________ G. ROHINI,J. Date: 18.12.2009 KLP
