GOVT.PLEADER SMT.ANU SIVARAMAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 04/12/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 34060 OF 2009 (B) ===================== Dated this the 4th day of December, 2009 J U D G M E N T The grievance is against Ext.P9 order issued by the 1st respondent turning down the petitioner's request for a category change. Petitioner is a last grade employee and is certified to be 40% blind. By Ext.P8, he requested for a category change to the post of Village man and that was turned down by Ext.P9. The reason stated in Ext.P9 is that there is no rule providing for such category change. Apart from compassionate grounds, no rule whatsoever is pointed out even in the writ petition justifying the request for category change. If so, I cannot say that the reason stated in Ext.P9 is illegal warranting interference. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
