The petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that although they have applied for registration as an employer and sought allotment of headload workers from the Pool, the same is not being granted by the 2nd respondent. The learned standing counsel for the 2nd respondent on instructions submits the petitioner's establishment can be registered and headload workers can be allotted to the petitioner for doing loading an unloading work as per requisition made from the petitioner from time to time. Accordingly, the said submission is recorded and the writ petition is closed. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE Acd
