BY SC SRI.ALEXANDER THOMAS GP SMT.M.R.SREELATHA THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 26/05/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: V.GIRI, J ------------------- W.P.(C).15452/2008 -------------------- Dated this the 26th day of May, 2008 JUDGMENT Petitioners are included in the rank list published for the post of Junior Public Health Nurse Grade-II in the Health Services Department in Idukki District. The said list has expired. Petitioners submit that they did not get a chance to get appointment in Idukki District only on account of the fact that the provisional employees working in different Offices in Idukki District came to be regularized. They pointed out that the rank list in Eranakulam District has been exhausted. But there are still vacancies in Eranakulam District and they seek a direction to the respondents to consider them against the vacancies existing in Eranakulam District. 2. Learned Standing Counsel for the PSC points out that the petitioners were included in the rank list published in Idukki District and the said list has expired. They cannot seek an advice against the vacancies in Eranakulam District in as much as they were not included W.P.(C).15452/2008 2 in the list published in Eranakulam District. Submission is correct. I do not find my way to issue a direction to the respondents in this regard. Writ petition is bereft of merit and hence, the same is dismissed. V.GIRI, Judge mrcs
