THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU Wednesday, the 4th day of April,2007 W.P.No.9485 of 1998 Between:- Y. Rajireddy & others … Petitioners and Chief Engineer, Transmission Corporation, Of A.P. Ltd., Warangal and others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU W.P.No.9485 of 1998 ORAL ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed seeking a Mandamus declaring the action of the respondents in conducting interview on 19-9- 1997 and test of ability of the candidates to write and read as arbitrary, illegal and violative of the agreement dated 5-3-1996, B.P.Ms.No.36,dated 18-5-1997 and also the Judgment of the Supreme Court. Petitioners appear to have worked as Village Electricity Workers and they are entitled for absorption into the services of the respondent- Corporation as per B.P.Ms.No.36, dated 18-5-1997. For the purpose of considering their cases, petitioners were called for interview on 19- 9-1997 along with others. They failed in the test conducted by the authorities and, therefore, their cases were not considered for absorption. Under those circumstances, they have filed the very writ petition challenging the interview and test conducted on 19-9-1997. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion that the Writ Petition is misconceived. It is not in the case of the petitioners alone such test and/or interview were conducted, but for all the people, who are eligible for consideration under B.P.Ms.No.36, dated 18-5-1997 the test and interview were conducted. However, as stated above, the petitioners failed in the interview and test held on 19- 9-1997; therefore, their cases were not considered. No case is made out to interfere with the matter under Article 226 Constitution of India. The Writ Petition is devoid of any merit and is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. 04-4-2007 Prk
