Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.K.G.KRISHNA MURTHY Counsel for the Respondent No.: GP FOR EDUCATION The Court Made the Following : ORDER: The petitioner is aggrieved by the inaction on the part of the respondents in not considering her case for promotion to the post of Social Assistant(Social Studies) in the existing vacancy(as it existed as on 24-08-1994) as illegal, improper and arbitrary. The case of the petitioner is that under the Rules, she is entitled for consideration of her case for promotion to the post of Social Assistant in the existing vacancy at the relevant time, as she possesses the requisite qualifications. This Court having admitted the writ petition on 29-08-1994, directed the respondents to consider her case. Practically, the relief as prayed for granted even at the interlocutory stage. Nothing is known at this point of time, as to what transpired after the interim order passed by this Court. It is needless to observe that if the petitioner’s case is positively considered by the respondents and she was promoted as prayed for, she cannot be disturbed from that position as on today. If no relief was granted even after such consideration, no further directions could be issued at this point of time since the petitioner’s case itself is confined for consideration of her case for promotion in the vacancy that existed as on 24-08-1994. In such view of the matter no further directions as such are required to be issued and the writ petition is disposed of with the observations as above. No order as to costs.
