THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V.RAMANA Writ Petition No.22583 of 2006 Dated:01-11-2006 Between: H.N.Lokanath. …..PETITIONER AND APCPDCL, rep. by Chairman and Managing Director, 3rd Floor, Singareni Bhavan Red Hills, Hyderabad and others. ….RESPONDENTS THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V.RAMANA W.P.No.22583 of 2006 ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-APCPDCL. 2. The petitioner was appointed as Assistant Secretary (IR) on contract basis for a period of three years from 08-09-2003 in the respondent-APCPDCL. After expiry of three years contract period, he was issued with a letter dated 05.09.2006 by the 1st respondent to handover the charge to Assistant Secretary (protocol). In the meantime, the 2nd respondent issued a notification dated 02-08-2006, proposing to recruit ‘Assistant Secretary (IR)’ on an initial period of 3 years renewable on yearly basis, based on the performance, and the petitioner has applied for the said post. The case of the petitioner is that he did not even call for interview, which was held on 05-10-2006 and the candidates, who are not having required qualification and experience, were selected. Hence, he submitted a representation dated 17.10.2006 requesting the respondent-APCPDCL to cancel the said recruitment and to reinstate him into service. But so far no orders thereon have been passed by the respondent- APCPDCL. Hence, he filed the present writ petition. 3. Since the representation dated 17-10-2006 of the petitioner is said to be pending consideration before the respondent- APCPDCL, without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: The respondent is directed to consider the representation dated 17.10.2006 of the petitioner and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law, expeditiously. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. ________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated:01.11.2006 sj/nsr
