THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.20447 OF 2005 Dated 5th October 2005 Between: A.R.Prasad S/o.A.Mathaiah & others …Petitioners And The Chairman & Managing Director, AP GENCO, Vidyut Soudha, Khairatabad, Hyderabad & others …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.20447 OF 2005 O R D E R: The petitioners claim that they have been engaged as contract labour with the respondents, on the construction side under a licensed contractor. They seek a direction to the respondents, to regularize their services. Sri P.Sridhar Rao, learned counsel for the petitioners, submits that the petitioners are entitled for regularization, in terms of B.P.Ms.No.36, dated 18.5.1997, and that the respondents have not extended the benefit, thereunder. Heard the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. Through B.P.Ms.No.36, the then Electricity Board decided to regularize the services of certain categories of contract labour. The implementation of the same has been the subject matter of several writ petitions, and the proceedings have since been implemented. The question, as to whether the cases of the petitioners are covered by the B.P.Ms.No.36, and if so, why the petitioners have not made their claim for all these years, cannot be gone into, by this Court, at this stage. The petitioners have not even stated that they have made any representation, in this regard. Unless, the petitioners have made any claim, and the respondents have intimated their reaction thereto, it is difficult for this court to undertake any adjudication. For the foregoing reasons, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioners to submit a representation to the respondents, pointing out their grievance. On receiving such representation, the respondents shall consider the same, on its own merits, and pass appropriate orders, within a period of three months, from the date of receipt of representation. This order shall not be treated as the pronouncement upon the claims or rights of the petitioners, in this writ petition. There shall be no order as to costs. __________________ 5th October 2005 PAN
