RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS: N I L /TRUE COPY/ P.A.TO JUDGE Kss KURIAN JOSEPH, J. --------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.22655 OF 2005 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of December, 2008. J U D G M E N T Petitioners are aggrieved since they are not appointed as S.L.R workers. The stand taken by the Chief Engineer is that their claim for inclusion in the S.L.R list was rejected since they had not submitted any representation before the cut off date. In view of Exhibit P10 judgment, in similar circumstances, that contention cannot be appreciated. Therefore, I quash Exhibit P9. There will be a direction to the second respondent to consider the matter afresh and take appropriate action with regard to the grievance referred to above in the case of the petitioners, in the light of Exhibit P10 judgment. The needful shall be done within a period of two months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment along with copy of the writ petition. This writ petition is disposed of as above.
