No.2165 of 2009 -------------------------------- Dated this the 5th day of October,2009 JUDGMENT Kurian Joseph.J This Appeal is filed against the interim order dated 16/9/2009 in the writ petition. The learned Single Judge directed to report three vacancies in the post of Assistant Director of Fisheries (Zonal) to the Kerala Public Service Commission on or before 3/10/2009.It has been made clear in the order itself that the requisition need be acted upon and advice be issued by the PSC against those three vacancies only after getting orders from the court.The vehement attempt of the Government Pleader is to establish that there are no vacancies available for appointment and hence the direction to report vacancies is unwarranted. It is also submitted that such reporting of vacancies will only give unnecessary room for unfounded expectations and ill- advised litigations.These are matters for the State to submit before the Learned Single Judge, this writ petition is dismissed.
