BY MR.K.S.ANIL , SC FOR KSEB THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 19/05/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: tss ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ---------------------- W.P.(C) No.12515 OF 2010 --------------------------- Dated this the 19th day of May, 2010 J U D G M E N T ~~~~~~~~~~~ Petitioner seeks to challenge Ext.P5, by which the respondent Board has rejected the petitioners request for preparing gradation list of Assistant Engineers applying the ratio 1:4:3:2. However, as conceded by the learned counsel for the 2nd respondent, while passing Ext.P5 order, the Board did not take into account the directions of this Court as contained in Exts.P3 and P4 judgments. Evidently, therefore, Ext.P5 cannot be sustained. 2. The Writ Petition is therefore disposed of quashing Ext.P5 and requiring the 2nd respondent to reconsider the request of the petitioner, duly adverting the directions contained in Exts.P3 and P4 judgments of this Court. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within six weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this Writ Petition. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) ps
