IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) FRIDAY, THE TWENTY FIFTH DAY OF SEPTEMBER TWO THOUSAND AND NINE PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH & THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION No.21015 of 2009 Between: Dr.Azeezunnissa and 2 others ..... PETITIONERS AND The Commissioner of Ayush, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad and 11 others .....RESPONDENTS The Court made the following: THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH & THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR WRIT PETITION No.21015 of 2009 ORDER: (per Hon’ble Sri Justice Vilas V.Afzulpurkar) The petitioners are not parties to the O.A.3474 of 2009 on the file of the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad (hereinafter referred to as “the Tribunal”) but question the interim order passed in the said O.A. by the Tribunal on 02.06.2009. In the said impugned order, the Tribunal was of the view that since the seniority list is sought to revised as per the impugned Memo, pending admission, status quo in respect of the applicant is required to be maintained. Against the said order, the present writ petition is filed. We are not inclined to entertain the present writ petition, firstly, for the reason that the petitioners are not parties to the said O.A. and they cannot directly approach this Court by the present writ petition, that too, without seeking leave as to how they are affected/aggrieved by the said order. Secondly, the said interim order is purely within the discretion of the Tribunal and on the facts and circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was satisfied that since the revision of the seniority list is contemplated, pending admission, order of status quo was warranted. We do not think that the discretion exercised by the Tribunal is anyway vitiated. However, as the learned counsel for the petitioners seeks to make several submissions on merits of the matter, we relegate the petitioners to approach the Tribunal by filing applications to implead and vacate the impugned order, if they are so advised, and as and when such applications are filed, we are sure that the Tribunal would expeditiously hear and dispose of the same at the earliest, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of filing such applications. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ___________________ V.ESWARAIAH,J ___________________________ VILAS V.AFZULPURKAR,J Dated: 25.09.2009 Dsr
