THE HON'BLE SMT JUSTICE T.MEENA KUMARI WRIT PETITION NO : 21969 of 2009 Dated: 29.7.2010 Between: Ch. Amaranadha Reddy. ..... PETITIONER AND 1. The A.P. Southern Power Distribution Company Limited, (APSPDCL) Tirupathi, Chittoor District, rep., by its Chairman & Managing Director and others. .....RESPONDENTS The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE SMT JUSTICE T.MEENA KUMARI WRIT PETITION NO :21969 of 2009 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking to declare the action of the respondents in dispensing with the services of the petitioner as Shift Operator 33/11 KV Substation, Nooliveedu, Rayachoty Division, Kadapa District, as highly illegal and arbitrary and consequently, to direct the respondents to continue his services. The grievance of the petitioner is that he is working in the respondent-organization since 2002 and the 3rd respondent without any notice and without there being any reason, orally instructed him not to attend for duty from 16.10.2009 and therefore, the action of the respondents is illegal and the respondents may be directed to continue his services. Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel. Perused the material available on record. On 14.10.2009, while admitting the writ petition, this Court granted interim direction to the respondents not to terminate the services of the petitioner, without following due process of law. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is still continuing in service. In view of the above submission and in the facts and circumstances of the case, I feel that no cause arises to file the present writ petition and apart from that, the approach of the petitioner itself without any proceedings, is a premature one and thereby, the writ petition is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. __________________________ Justice T. Meena Kumari Date: 29th July, 2010 nn.
