J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a Mixing Assistant in the Vijayamohini Mills, Thiruvananthapuram, which is a unit under the National Textiles Corporation. The petitioner had joined the mill as an Apprentice on 2.9.1991. According to the petitioner, he is qualified and eligible to be appointed as a Junior Assistant. 2. Learned counsel for the respondents on instructions submits that though there are vacancies of Junior Assistants, they have not been filled up because another unit coming under the National Textiles Corporation, viz. Parvathy Mills is being closed and workers who might have to be retrenched from the said unit may have to be considered for employment in the Vijayamohini Mills. Applications have been invited from the workers of Parvathy Mills in this regard. If, after absorbing them, there are vacancies in the post of Junior Assistant in Vijayamohini Mills, the petitioner shall be considered along with other internal applicants. WP(C) NO.16685/08 2 The submission is recorded and the writ petition is disposed of recording the said submission.
