THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.20284 of 2005 Date:19.09.2005 K.Naik Sheopal --------PETITIONER The Union of India and others ---------RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioner states that he has been drafted to undergo the course for promotion from Naik Cadre to that of Havaldar, which is scheduled to be commenced from 26.09.2005 at AOC Centre, Secunderabad. His grievance is that he is not permitted by the respondents herein to pursue the course on one pretext or the other. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the Central Government. The writ petition came up ‘for admission’ on 15.09.2005. On that day, it was adjourned to today, with a view to enable the learned Standing Counsel to ascertain whether the petitioner has been drafted for such training. On instructions, the learned Standing Counsel submits that the name of the petitioner finds place in the list of persons drafted for such training. If that be so, the petitioner cannot be denied the benefit of such course, unless there exists any valid reasons recognized in law, for that purpose. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that the respondents shall relieve the petitioner to enable him to undergo the course for promotion from Naik Cadre to that of Havaldar, before commencement of the course. It is, however, made clear that in case there are any factors that enable the respondents to deny the petitioner, the benefit of that course, they shall pass a reasoned order in that behalf before 25.09.2005. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 19.09.2005 Note: Issue C.C. in three days. (B/o) Jsu
