The prayer of the writ petitioner, who is working as a Junior Clerk for the last about 20 years, is that he may be appointed as a Senior Clerk of the second respondent Bank, as Junior Clerk is the feeder category for promotion to the cadre of Senior Clerk. One, Kuriyan Kuriyan is on leave and he is working in gulf. The writ petitioner claims that the said Kuriyan Kuriyan, is junior to him. Therefore, the stand of the second respondent bank that the writ petitioner has to wait till the gulf employee returns to the post of Junior Clerk, cannot be accepted. That made him to rush to the first respondent. 2. In the above facts situation, I direct the first respondent to dispose of Exhibit P4 representation dated W.P.(C) No.33755/2006 (R) 2 18/10/2006, pending with him, within one month from the date of receipt of the copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (J.M.JAMES) Judge ms
