WP(C) 1692/2009 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.P. KATAKEY Heard Mr. PK Talukdar, the learned counsel for the petitioner an d Mr. Ghosh, the learned State Counsel appearing for the respondents. The grievance of the petitioner in the present petition is that though he was selected for appointment as Warder (Male) in the Jail Department u nder the Government of Assam and his name appeared in Serial No.12 of the select list published on 27th January, 2009 for that purpose and though the police ver ification was sought for, nothing has been done by the respondent authorities th ereafter, which according to the petitioner, has deprived him from getting appoi ntment though selected. The respondent No.2 in the affidavit-in-opposition filed has sta ted that a report dated 12th February, 2009 has been received from the Deputy Su perintendent of Police (SB), Assam to the effect that after verification of the antecedents of the petitioner, it was found that he belonged to a banned Organiz ation, namely United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA). It has further been stat ed in the said affidavit that the Deputy Superintendent of Police (SB) has also certified that nothing adverse has been found on records against the petitioner. The said respondents placing reliance on the office memorandum dated 18th May, 1976 has further stated that as the petitioner at one point of time belonged to a banned Organization, he is not entitled to be appointed despite his selection . Admittedly after receipt of the police verification report dated 12th February, 2009 (Annexure-V to the affidavit-in-opposition filed by the res pondent No.2), no order has been passed by the authority either appointing the p etitioner or refusing to appoint him, pursuant to the selection made. That being the position, the present writ petition is disposed o f with a direction to the respondent No.2, the Inspector General of Prisons, to pass necessary order on the basis of the police verification report received and taking into account the Government’s order/circular issued from time to time, w ithin a period of 3 (three) weeks from the date of receipt of the certified copy of the order passed today alongwith the copy of the writ petition and the affid avit-in-opposition filed by the respondent No.2, and its annexures appended ther eto to be placed by the petitioner before the said authority. Thereafter, the d ecision so taken by the authority shall be intimated to the petitioner. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No cost.
