He states that it has been enhanced to Rs.420/-. According to him, there is a clear vacancy of clerk in the temple and he complains that in spite of his repeated representations, his case for regularization of his services has not been considered. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Endowments. The very engagement of the petitioner is on part-time basis. It discloses that the 1st respondent temple did not have sufficient resources to pay regular salary or there did not exist any regular post of clerk. The case of the petitioner can be considered, if only there is an improvement on any of these two aspects. It is not known as to whether any post of clerk has been sanctioned by the competent authority to the concerned temple and if so, whether the case of the petitioner can be considered under any circulars or provisions of law. The uncertainty prevailing in the matter can be resolved, if the second respondent, the Assistant Commissioner of Endowments, Rajahmundry, examines the matter and passes appropriate orders. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of, directing the second respondent to examine as to a. whether there exists any post of clerk in Sri Syamalamba Ammavari Temple, Velugu Banda, East Godavari District, and b. whether it is feasible for appointment of any clerk in terms of Section 57 of the Andhra Pradesh Charitable and Hindu Religious Institutions and Endowments Act, 1987. In case it emerges that such a post exists and the petitioner possesses requisite qualifications, his case shall also be considered as and when regular appointment is undertaken for that post. For this purpose, the petitioner shall make an application to the respondents herein. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ (L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J) 4th JANUARY, 2006. kvni
