HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH THE HONOURABLE SMT. JUSTICE T.MEENA KUMARI W.P. No. 6125 OF 2000 Friday, the Thirteenth day of August, Two Thousand and Ten Between C.Sanjanna Petitioner AND Andhra Pradesh Housing Corporation Limited, Rep. By its Managing Director, Street No.17, Urdugally, Hyderabad and another. Respondents ORAL ORDER: The petitioner seeks a direction to the respondents to consider his case for appointment to the post of Godown Watch, in view of the orders passed in Writ Petition No. 1332 of 1992 dated 7.8.1996. The petitioner was appointed as Watchman on daily wage basis by the Deputy Executive Engineer (Housing) Kurnool, on 8.6.1985. After completion of six years of service, he submitted representation for regularization of services, but the second respondent though regularized the services of Draftsman and other categories, his services were not regularized. Inasmuch as the second respondent has orally ordered the petitioner not to attend the office with effect from 18.01.1992, the petitioner filed WP No. 1332 of 1992 and this court by order dated 7.8.1996, directed the respondents to consider the claim of the petitioner for regularization, if and when any sanctioned post is available in preference to another who is appointed to the post. It is the case of the petitioner that subsequent to the disposal of the above writ petition, though two vacancies of Godown Watchman have arisen, his case was not considered and even the Contempt Case No. 1084 of 1997 was closed on the representation of the respondents that no sanctioned post of Godown Watchman was available. It is also stated that his representation to the respondents to absorb him in the vacancy created by the death of Smt. P.Pullamma and the vacancy created on the promotion of Ch.V.Prasad Rao, Night Watchman, also did not bear fruit. Hence, this writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. In the facts and circumstances of the case, suffice it to direct the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner to the post of Godown Watchman, if there is a vacancy and he is otherwise eligible in terms of the Rules. With this direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. No order as to costs. ________________________ Justice T. Meena Kumari August 13, 2010 MAS
