THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.20026 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is working in the Exploration Division of the Singareni Collieries Company Limited in category E-6. The post higher to that is E-7. It is stated that there are four disciplines in Exploration Division namely Geology, Geophysics, Drilling and Hydrogeology. The petitioner is in the discipline of Drilling. He contends that in the recent past, the respondents initiated steps for filling up of five posts in E-7 category. The grievance of the petitioner is that the candidates from Geology discipline alone are being considered for it. He seeks a declaration and direction in this regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. Even according to the petitioner, there exist four disciplines in the Exploration Division. That, naturally would necessitate the provision of posts at every level for the respective disciplines. In case the posts in E-7 category are being filled specifically for Geology discipline, the petitioner cannot have any grievance. On the other hand, if they are general in nature equilibrium needs to be maintained for all the disciplines in the context of promotion. This, however, is a matter which needs to be examined by the respondents. The petitioner already submitted a representation dated 12.08.2010 in this regard. Hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 12.08.2010 and pass appropriate orders within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. __________________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J 26th October 2010 cvrk
