THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO. 24072 OF 2005 Dated 10th November 2005 Between: V.Usha Rani W/o. N.Sivasanakrachari. …Petitioner And The Manager, Corporation Bank, Somala, Chittoor District & another. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO. 24072 OF 2005 O R D E R: The petitioner states that she has been registered with the District Employment Exchange, Chittoor District, the second respondent herein. The first respondent is said to have issued a notification, inviting applications for selection of candidates for the post of “part Time Sweeper”. It is alleged that the interview are scheduled to take place on 17.11.2005, or any other subsequent notified date. The grievance of the petitioner is that since her case is not being sponsored by the second respondent, the first respondent has not considered her candidature for the said post. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Government Pleader for Social Welfare. Though sponsoring of candidates, through Employment Exchange, is treated as one of the known sources of candidates for consideration for employment, in Government service and Public Sector undertakings, there does not exist any prohibition for them, in considering the case of eligible candidates, even if not sponsored by the Employment Exchange. There are several judgments of the Supreme Court and this Court, on this aspect. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the first respondent to consider the candidature of the petitioner, without insisting on sponsoring by the Employment Exchange. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ 10th November 2005 PAN
