KURIAN JOSEPH, J. --------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.18021 OF 2005 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of December, 2008. J U D G M E N T Petitioner approached this Court with certain grievance with regard to inaction on the part of the Employment Officer in not sponsoring the name of the petitioner for consideration by the first respondent in the matter of appointment to the post of Part Time Sweepers. 2. It is submitted that pursuant to the interim order dated 15.06.2005, the petitioner was interviewed and it is learned that he is the top in the select list. However, the appointment is not offered on the ground that only candidates sponsored upto 08.03.1979 have been considered and since the petitioner's seniority in the matter of registration is only from 02.11.1981. It is seen from Exhibits P5 and P6 that the said stand has no basis. The candidates who have registered their names after 02.11.1981 also have been appointed. Therefore, there will be a direction to the first respondent to take appropriate action in the matter of appointment of Part Time W.P.(C) No.18021/05 2 Sweepers pursuant to the interview held on 17.06.2005, if not already taken, within a period of one month from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above. KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE. smp W.P.(C) No.18021/05 3 KURIAN JOSEPH, J. W.P.(C) No.18021 OF 2005 J U D G M E N T 17.12.2008
