Appellants are challenging the interim order passed by the learned single Judge in W.P.(C)No.20469 of 2008. According to the appellants, they got training and as per the rules only candidates employed in the University who got training from the University can be appointed. We note that even though selection was not stayed, the learned single Judge had stated that even if selection is made, appointments shall not be made without getting further orders from this court. In the above circumstances, since the appointment itself was stayed, we are of the opinion that the writ petition itself can be heard and selection can be made thereafter. Therefore, parties may approach the learned single Judge for an early disposal of the writ petition. It is submitted that notice was issued calling candidates for written test. Written test and its valuation can go on, but, further selection process is stayed till disposal of the writ petition. The appeal is disposed of accordingly. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE V.K.MOHANAN JUDGE tks
