Administrativ Tribunal, Hyderabad assailing a memo dated 03.11.2006 issued by the 3r respondent herein which presumptively impacts the petitioner adversely qua hi seniority and pejoratively affects his promotion to the post of Deputy Director o Correctional/Chief Probation Superintendent. By the order impugned dated 01-6-2010 the O.A, which was listed under th caption for dismissal presumably because of the absence of the petitioner or an representation on his behalf, was dismissed for non-prosecution on the date it i listed for dismissal. In such circumstances, the appropriate course for the petitioner is t approach the learned Tribunal with an appropriate application for setting aside th order of dismissal for default and restoration of O.A by showing just an reasonable cause for the failure to represent the matter earlier. This cou discerns no infirmity in the exercise of discretion by the learned Tribunal i passing of the interim order. In the circumstances granting liberty to the petitioner to approach the learne Tribunal, this writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. ______________ GODA RAGHURAM,J ______________ R.KANTHA RAO,J 14th JUNE 2010. TSNR
