DATE: 13TH OCTOBER, 2008. DATE: 13TH OCTOBER, 2008. P.C. . On 29th September, 2008, we have passed a specific order that unless and until the respondents specify the reservation of posts for ex-servicemen category, they would not proceed to take interview for filling the post of junior clerk in Satara District 2 Central Co-operative Bank i.e. Respondent No. 2. Accordingly, the petitioners in their affidavit in reply pointed out to this Court in what manner the process of selection has taken place and that due reservation to ex-servicemen category was made which as per the advertisement was 15% of the total posts. Accordingly, they found only six ex-servicemen who qualified for interview belonging to the various categories and all of them have been selected. In view of this, we find that as the respondents have provided for reservation of ex-servicemen and out of the total posts reserved for the category of ex-servicemen, only six have qualified. We modify our order and permit the respondents to complete their process of recruitment. 2. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the recruitment process adopted by respondent no. 2 is not transparent. In reply to that Mr. C.J. Sawant, the learned Senior Advocate appearing for the respondent Bank, has stated that the list of candidates who passed the written examination and who qualified for being interviewed was duly published. In this view of the matter, we are not inclined to pass any interim order in the case. 3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the respondent no. 2 has failed to fill in the back log which is growing against the said reservation. This issue is to be 3 considered on merits at the time of hearing of the petition. (J.N. Patel, J.) (J.N. Patel, J.) (J.N. Patel, J.) (S.J. Kathawalla, J.) (S.J. Kathawalla, J.) (S.J. Kathawalla, J.)
