RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.21947 OF 2007 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a Mandamus declaring the action of the respondent Corporation in not declaring the results of the interview conducted in pursuance of the notification dated 10.07.2006, as arbitrary, illegal and violative of Articles 14, 16 and 21 of the Constitution of India. It appears, petitioners have passed I.T.I. in electrical trade and worked as casual labour with the respondent Corporation for some time, and, in pursuance of a notification issued by the Corporation on 10.07.2006, they have applied for the post of Junior Lineman (contract). When they were not called for interview, they had to approach this Court and, in pursuance of the interim directions issued by this Court, they were interviewed on 20.4.2007. Now the grievance of the petitioners is that though they fared well in the interview, they were not selected for appointment. According to the learned counsel for petitioners, when the petitioners approached the respondents, they were informed that since they have filed writ petition before this Court, they were not appointed. 2 In view of the above, without expressing any opinion on merits, the respondents are directed to declare the results of the interview held on 20.4.2007 and, if the petitioners are found eligible for being appointed as Junior Lineman (contract), they shall be offered appointment in the existing vacancies, if they are otherwise eligible as per law, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _____________ C.V.RAMULU, J 12th October, 2007 Note: Issue C.C. in three (3) days. Bo IBL
