IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION NO :29051 of 1998 Dated: 14th August 2007. Between: M.Raju, S/o Late Sri M.Rajaratnam, aged about 50 years, Occ: Driver, F.No.84573, A.P. State Road Transport Corporation, Vuyyuru Depot, Vijayawada Region, Krishna District. ..... PETITIONER AND The Managing Director, A.P. State Road Transport Corporation, RTC X Roads, Hyderabad and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO W.P.NO.29051 OF 1998 ORAL ORDER: On 07-08-2007, the matter was directed to be listed under the caption ‘for dismissal’, since there was no representation on behalf of the writ petitioner. Today also, though the matter is listed for dismissal, none appears for the writ petitioner. Sri Manmada Reddy the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent Corporation is present. He represents that the case of the writ petitioner was considered for promotion as Assistant Depot Clerk, but due to his bad record, he could not be selected. There is no material on record to contradict this assertion of the respondents. If the post of Assistant Depot Clerk is a selection post and the case of the petitioner is considered for such a promotion, then the petitioner cannot make a grievance of his non-selection, without putting the same as an issue. Hence, I find no merits in the writ petition. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. However, in the circumstances, there shall be no order as to costs. --------------------------------- Nooty Ramamohana Rao, J mrk 14th August 2007.
