KURIAN JOSEPH, J. ---------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.33456 of 2006 ---------------------------------------------- Dated 29th September, 2008. J U D G M E N T Petitioner is aggrieved by the selection procees leading to Ext.P3 ranked list for appointment to the post of Theatre Mechanic. According to the petitioner, he was not called for the proficiency test. It is seen from the counter affidavit that the call letter sent to the petitioner was not returned to the Commission. It is also submitted that wide publicity had been given in the matter of proficiency test, in all the leading dailies. Still further, it is seen that the petitioner's approach is only after three months of the publication of the ranked list. No affected party is also on the party array. In view of the counter affidavit regarding the steps already taken by the Commission, and in view of the fact that no affected party is on the party array, there is no merit in the writ petition. It is hence dismissed.
