It appears, petitioner was engaged as NMR in TTD services way back in the year 1984. In the year 1991, the services of other NMRs were recommended for regularization, but some how, the name of the petitioner was missed in the said list prepared. Therefore, he made a representation to the respondent and the respondent considered his case and was appointed on regular basis with eﬀect from 10.4.1992. Now the grievance of the petitioner is that, for no fault of him, his name was not included in the original list of NMRs, therefore he is lagging behind in the seniority, therefore he seeks a direction to the respondent to reckon his seniority from the date on which other NMRs were regularized. In this regard, petitioner seems to have made several representations to the respondent, but the same were not disposed of till date. Under those circumstances, without expressing any opinion on merits, the respondent is directed to consider the representations purported to have been made by the petitioner on 26.3.2005 and 2.7.2007 and pass appropriate orders, as per law, within a period of eight (8) weeks from the date of receipt of this order and communicate the same to the petitioner. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. ________________ C.V.RAMULU, J Date: 8.9.2008 DA THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.12877 of 2008 8.9.2008
