Counsel for the Petitioners: Mr. G.VIDYASAGAR Counsel for the Respondent: Mr. N.KRISHNA RAO The Court at the admission stage made the following ORDER: The 1st petitioner’s son worked with the respondent, who died due to sickness on 25-1-1998. On 25-5-1999 the 1st petitioner’s husband made a representation to the respondent to provide employment to the 2nd petitioner. The respondent’s Workers’ Union also submitted a representation on 16-12-1999 to the respondent. The 1st petitioner also submitted a representation on 2-10-2000 to the respondent after the death of her husband to provide employment to the 2nd petitioner. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondent did not pass any orders on the said representations. Therefore, they approached this Court seeking to declare the inaction of the respondent in not providing employment to the 2nd petitioner as illegal and arbitrary and to direct the respondent to provide employment to the 2nd petitioner in any suitable post. In the light of the circumstances submitted by the petitioners, the respondent is directed to pass appropriate orders on the representations made by the petitioners regarding their request to provide employment to the 2nd petitioner on account of the death of his brother, who was appointed on compassionate grounds after the retirement of the 1st petitioner’s husband on medical invalidation. The Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. _____________________ (Dr. G.YETHIRAJULU,J) 13th October, 2004. Tsy To 1.
