THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.26770 of 2007 DATED: 14.12.2007 Between: P. Kanoz .. Petitioner And A.P. Residential Educational Institutions Society, Hyderabad, rep. by its Secretary. .. Respondent THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.26770 of 2007 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a Mandamus declaring the action of the respondent in not finalizing the seniority list of Junior Lecturers, in terms of the guidelines framed by Anomalies Committee and approved by Vice Chairman of the respondent Society, as arbitrary and illegal; and consequently to direct the respondent to promote the petitioner as Principal, by considering the representations/objections filed by him. 2. According to the petitioner, he joined as Post Graduate Teacher in Biological Sciences, in A.P. Residential School (Boys), Bobbili, on 28.07.1984. Though he is the senior most Post Graduate Teacher, his juniors were posted as Junior Lecturers in July and November, 1985, at Nagarjunasagar and Bhradrachalam respectively, ignoring his seniority, and finally he was posted as Junior Lecturer in Zoology in A.P. Residential Junior College, Chintapalli, in July, 1986. While so, a seniority list was prepared in the year 1991, but, on filing of a writ petition by some of the employees, the same was set aside by this Court. Thereafter, another provisional seniority list has been prepared in the year 2002, but the same has also not attained finality, and subsequently another provisional seniority list has been prepared in the year 2004. However, no final seniority list has been prepared as of now. In this regard, he made several representations, ventilating his grievances, on 30.11.1990, 24.09.1993, 03.10.1994, 02.03.2002, 02.07.2004, 03.11.2004 and 23.09.2005, but there is no response from the authorities. 3. The sum and substance of the grievance of the petitioner seems to be that, since 1991, no final seniority list of Junior Lecturers has been prepared by the respondent society and the respondent society is promoting the employees according to its whims and fancies. 4. In the facts and circumstances of the case, without expressing any opinion on merits, the respondent is directed to consider the representations purported to have been made by the petitioner on 30.11.1990, 24.09.1993, 03.10.1994, 02.03.2002, 02.07.2004, 03.11.2004 and 23.09.2005, and finalize the seniority list of Junior Lecturers, after putting all the parties on notice, and pass appropriate orders, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, and communicate the same to the petitioner. 5. With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _________________ JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU 14th December, 2007. Note:- Issue CC in one week. BO IBL
