Northern Power Distribution Company Ltd., rep. by its Chairman and Managing Director, Chaitanyapuri, Opp: REC Petrol Bunk, Hanamakonda, Warangal District and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 14909 of 2007 Order: The petitioners state that they were appointed as Trainee Helpers in the respondent-APNPDCL in the month of October 1993. Subsequently, they were dismissed from service on the allegation that the ITI Certificates produced by them are not genuine one, and the respondent-APNPDCL also lodged a police complaint against them at Subedari Police Station, Hanamakonda, which was registered as C.C. No. 2 of 2001 on the file of IV Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Warangal, under Sections 420, 468 and 471 IPC. The case of the petitioners is that the said criminal case was finally ended in acquittal, by judgment dated 13.04.2005, and the same has attained finality, as no appeal was filed against the said judgment. The grievance of the petitioners is that after they acquitted from the said criminal case, they made several representations, the latest of which is dated 27.06.2007, requesting the respondents to reinstate them into service as Helpers/Assistant Lineman, but till date the respondents neither considered their case nor passed any orders on their representations. Hence, they filed the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-APNPDCL. Since the representations of the petitioners, dated 27.06.2007, are said to be pending consideration before the 1st respondent, namely the Chairman and Managing Director, A.P.N.P.D.C.L., Hanamakonda, Warangal District, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: The 1st respondent, namely the Chairman and Managing Director, A.P.N.P.D.C.L., Hanamakonda, Warangal District, is directed to consider the representations, dated 27.06.2007, of the petitioners and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law, expeditiously. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Date: 13.07.2007 Nsr
