CW 7264/08 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.7264/08 Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited Employees Union Versus The Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited & Ors. DATE OF ORDER : 12/08/2008 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY RASTOGI Mr. S.K. Gupta, for petitioner Mr. Neeraj Batra, for respondents *** Instant petition has been filed by petitioners with the grievance that despite they are eligible, respondents have failed to hold the Supplementary Limited Departmental Competitive Examination of Telecom Technical Assistant, Circle Jaipur, which is causing great prejudice to them. Material has been placed on record by petitioners justifying that in other circle Supplementary Limited Departmental Competitive Examination, 2004 was held by respondents, but so far as Jaipur Circle is concerned, it was deferred because of pendency of CW No.1593/07 at the Main Seat at Jodhpur & another CW No.7918/08 at Jaipur Bench, which is evident from Ann.3 dt.13th March, 2008. So far as pendency of petition before the Main Seat at Jodhpur is concerned, a reference has been made while deciding CW No.3455/08 CW 7264/08 [2] wherein it has been observed that the reason which was referred to by the respondents is no more in existence. So far as pendency of CW No.7918/08 at Jaipur Bench is concerned, it appears to be a dispute raised by individual petitioner to seek permission to appear in the Competitive Examination and interim order was passed by this court on 1st October, 2007 but pendency of writ petition, in opinion of this court, cannot be considered to be a basis to defer the examination, particularly, when in all other circles examinations have been held somewhere in the month of July, 2008. CW No.3455/08 has been disposed of at the Main Seat at Jodhpur granting three months' time to the respondents for holding examination. It will be appropriate for the respondents to hold examination for Jaipur Circle also in the time framework as fixed by this court. Accordingly, writ petition stands disposed of with the direction to the respondents to hold the Limited Departmental Competitive Examination for TTA against the vacancies of the year 2004 for Jaipur Small Switching Area expeditiously as far as possible within three months from today. No costs. [AJAY RASTOGI], J. FRBOHRA7264CW2008 12-8.doc
