According to them, several employees of four societies, similarly situated as 4th respondent, have been absorbed by the 3rd respondent, in accordance with the orders passed by the 1st respondent in G.O.Ms.No.125, Energy (PR.II), dated 15.10.2004. Their grievance is that similar treatment is not accorded to them, and they seek appropriate directions in this regard. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Standing Counsel for the 3rd respondent. Through its order in G.O.Ms.No.125, dated 15.10.2004, the 1st respondent directed absorption of 542 employees, who have been working in five Electricity Supply Societies. In that G.O., the name of the 4th respondent is also mentioned. However, the circumstances, under which the claims of the petitioners were not considered are not before this Court. It is too early to express any opinion on these aspects. The petitioners claim to have made a representation on 04.06.2005. The 3rd respondent has to consider the same and take appropriate steps. The representation cannot be kept pending indefinitely. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the 3rd respondent to pass appropriate orders in terms of G.O.Ms.No.125, dated 15.10.2004, on the representation, dated 04.06.2005, filed by the petitioners, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 07.10.2005 Jsu
