Counsel for the Petitioner: GP FOR FINANCE & PLANNING Counsel for the Respondent Nos 3 to 7: Mr.KUSURI SATYANARAYANA The Court made the following: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.BIKSHAPATHY AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.SESHASAYANA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.2233 OF 2004 ORDER: (per the Hon’ble Sri justice G.Bikshapathy) This writ petition is filed by the Government assailing the order passed by the A.P. Administrative Tribunal (for short ‘the Tribunal’) dated 29.07.2003 in O.A.No.4056 of 1998. The unofficial respondent herein filed an application before the Tribunal seeking regularization of his services. The Tribunal, after considering the matter disposed of the said O.A. with the following directions: “In the circumstances, as the applicants have put in long years of service, the respondents are directed to consider the cases of the applicants for regularization of their services in terms of the judgment of the Supreme Court in AIR 2001 SUPREME COURT 706 GUJARAT AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY V. RATHOD LABHU BECHAR AND OTHERS, and pass necessary orders in this regard within 4 weeks from today. Since the applicants are continuously working, their services should be counted from the date of their initial appointment.” Against the said order, the present Writ Petition is filed. 2. The learned Government Pleader submits before this Court that in pursuance of the directions issued by the Tribunal, the matter was considered and the orders were passed in proceedings No.17768/BV/B4/2001, dated 13.01.2004, rejecting the case for regularization. In the wake of this submission, we find that the writ petition is not maintainable in the hands of the Government. 3. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. However, we leave it open to the unofficial respondents to challenge the order in proceedings No.17768/BV/B4/2001, dated 13.01.2004, if they so choose. _______________________ G.BIKSHAPATHY, J Dated 14th July, 2004. _______________________ B.SESHASAYANA REDDY, J YCR Copy to: 1.
