ARAVINDHKUMAR BABU THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 29/06/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) NO.20212 OF 2010 (A) -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 29th day of June, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is a part time sweeper. She claimed regularization on the strength of GO(P).No.501/05/Fin. dated 25.11.2005. That was rejected by Ext.P8 order on the basis that the petitioner is a daily waged part time sweeper and that her case is not covered by the Government Order. Petitioner submits that subsequently, the Government have issued Ext.P9 clarification to the effect that even daily waged part time sweepers are entitled to the benefit of GO(P) No.501/05/Fin. dated 25.11.2005. Petitioner submits that based on Ext.P9 regularization has been given to certain other employees by Ext.P10 order. 2. In the facts as stated above, particularly having regard to Exts.P9 and P10, Ext.P8 order is unsustainable. Therefore, I set aside Ext.P8 and direct the first respondent to reconsider the claim of the petitioner for the benefit of regularization as ordered in GO(P) No.501/05/Fin. dated 25.11.2005 and as clarified in Ext.P9. Orders shall be passed as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within WPC.No. 20212/2010 :2 : 3 months from the date of production of a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition. Writ Petition is disposed of as above Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the first respondent for compliance. (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/
