THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.22117 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner was appointed as Assistant Librarian on temporary basis on a consolidated salary of Rs.6,505/- per month, through proceedings dated 09.04.2007. Thereafter, the 2nd respondent issued an advertisement on 20.03.2011 inviting applications for two posts of Library Assistants, one of which is reserved for S.C. and S.T. candidates; with a time scale of Rs.10900-31550. The petitioner states that he too submitted his application in response to the notification. He submits that he holds fairly superior qualifications and that the respondents are under obligation to regularize his services and seeks directions in that regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The writ petition cannot be entertained for more reasons than one. Firstly, the appointment of the petitioner was purely on temporary basis, on consolidated salary; and his services cannot be regularized, unless he is subjected to selection process. Secondly, the petitioner has submitted an application in response to the notification and he is precluded from challenging the very process of selection in pursuance of the said notification. Hence, the writ petition is dismissed. It is however directed that the respondents shall continue the petitioner on same terms, till the appointments in pursuance of the notification, dated 20.03.2011 are made, in case the petitioner is in service as on today. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 05.08.2011 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION N0. 22117 of 2011 Date: 05.08.2011 JSU
