THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.24957 of 2005 Date:23.11.2005 J.Rakesh. --------PETITIONER The Branch manager, Corporation Bank and another. ---------RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioner states that he has been registered with the District Employment Exchange, Nizamabad, 2nd respondent herein. The first respondent is said to have issued a notification inviting applications for selection of candidates for the posts of Sub-Staff (Peon). It is alleged that the interviews are scheduled to take place on 28.11.2005 or any other subsequent notified date. The grievance of the petitioner is that since his case is not being sponsored by the 2nd respondent, the 1st respondent has not considered his candidature for the said post. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Employment. Though sponsoring of candidates through Employment Exchange is treated as one of the known sources of candidates for consideration for employment in Government service and public sector undertakings, there does not exist any prohibition for them in considering the cases of eligible candidates, even if not sponsored by the Employment Exchange. There are several Judgments of the Supreme Court and this Court on this aspect. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the 1st respondent to consider the candidature of the petitioner, without insisting on sponsoring by the Employment Exchange. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 23.11.2005 Note: Issue C.C. by tomorrow. (B/o) Jsu
