THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.16227 of 2009 ORDER: The 1st respondent-company invited applications for selection of Distributors of Indane Gas, at Nalgonda town. The petitioner and several others submitted applications. The applicants are required to submit affidavits, in the form prescribed as Annexure-A. One of the clauses in the affidavit relates to nationality of the applicant. On the ground that the petitioner did not state his nationality, his candidature was not considered, and the same was informed to him, through communication dated 07-07-2009. The petitioner challenges the said letter. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and learned Standing Counsel for the Corporation. The omission on the part of the petitioner is, no doubt, trivial, and this Court has granted relief to certain candidates, in similar matters. However, the petitioner approached this Court at a belated stage. The writ petition was filed, long after the interviews were held, and the selections were made. The possibility of the petitioner being interviewed does not exist, at this stage. At any rate, third party rights have accrued. Hence, the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.17-02-2010. KO
