THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.13973 of 2010 ORAL ORDER: The learned counsel appearing on either side fairly conceded that the issue that arises for consideration in this writ petition is squarely covered by the order passed by this Court in W.P.No.9924 of 2010 dated 28.4.2010 and therefore, this writ petition is also liable to be disposed of in terms of the said order. In view of the above, following the order passed in the above writ petition, the order of termination dated 23.12.2008 passed by first respondent in Proceedings No.01/197(1)/2008-HZB is set aside, with a direction to the respondents to reinstate the petitioner into service as a Conductor on contract basis. It is made clear that on such reinstatement, the petitioner is entitled to continuity of service and to all the benefits of contract employment, which are extended to the similarly placed contract Conductors, appointed along with him. It is also made clear that if there is any misconduct on the part of the petitioner, this order will not preclude the respondents from conducting inquiry and passing appropriate orders in accordance with law. The writ petition is allowed to the extent indicated above. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ C.V.RAMULU, J Date: 18.6.2010 DA THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.13973 of 2010 18.6.2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.13973 of 2010 Date: 18th June, 2010 Between: N.Linga Reddy ..
