MRS.ANU SIVARAMAN, GOVERNMENT PLEADER THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30/11/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C.) No.34124 of 2009 (I) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 30th day of November, 2009 J U D G M E N T The petitioners are working as Anganwadi workers. Exts.P1 & P2 certify that they have experience of 554 days and 579 days respectively. According to the petitioners, steps are being taken by the respondents to make fresh appointments replacing them. It is stated that by Exts.P5 & P6, Government have ordered that provisional employees like the petitioners should be appointed first before inducting fresh hands. On this basis, it is contended that steps taken by the respondents to induct fresh hands ignoring their rightful claim, is incorrect. 2. However, a reading of Exts.P5 & P6 together show that only those who have rendered service of at least six months as on 15/12/2006 alone are eligible for the benefit of the said Government Orders. Admittedly, the petitioners do not satisfy this condition. If so, their claim relying on Exts.P5 & P6 cannot be accepted. If that be the case, the provisional employees like the WP(C) No.34124/2009 -2- petitioners can have no claim to have the permanent post. In view of the above, I am not inclined to entertain the writ petition, and the writ petition is dismissed. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
