THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.30795 of 2010 ORDER: The A.P.S.R.T.C. issued a notification, dated 01.11.2010, inviting applications for selection and appointment to the post of Shramik. 23.12.2010 was stipulated as last date for the submission of applications. The petitioner contends that on account of his living in a remote area, he did not submit the application, within time and when he sought to present the same four days after the last date, the respondents are refusing to receive the same. He seeks a Mandamus in this regard. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. It s nearly after 10 years that the Corporation issued notification for recruiting Shramiks. Quite large number of individuals have applied. The last date has its own significance, in this context. Though the petitioner may have a genuine cause, no exception can be carved out in his favour. If an application is received after the due date, the very notification looses its significance. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as costs. _____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.10.12.2010. GJ
