THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.21677 OF 2005 Dt: 05.10.2005 Between: P.Prasad, S/o.Narayana, Age: 33 years, R/o.1-8-55, Ram Mandir Street, Vemulawada Karimnagar District .. Petitioner AND The Regional Manager, APSRTC, Karimnagar Region, Karimnagar District and another .. Respondents ORDER: The petitioner claims to have been appointed as Attender-cum-Night Watchman in the Vemulawada Depot of A.P.S.R.T.C., with effect from 01.07.1999, on a consolidated salary of Rs.3,200/-, per month. He claims to have worked at a lesser pay of Rs.2,800/- up to 31.07.2004, and discontinued thereafter. His grievance is that though there are vacancies, his case is not being considered for continuation or appointment, and seeks appropriate directions. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing counsel for the respondents. The petitioner was engaged for a period of five years on consolidated pay. The fact remains that he was discontinued from 01.08.2004 onwards. The question as to whether there exists still any necessity for the respondents to engage an Attender- cum-Night Watchman or whether any persons similar to the petitioner were extended any benefit of continuation of service needs to be considered by the respondents. It is, too premature for this Court to undertake any findings on those aspects. Further, the past service of the petitioner can be taken into account, in the event of undertaking any new appointments by the respondents. For the foregoing reasons, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to make a representation, duly narrating the circumstances under which he worked and claiming necessary relief. The respondents shall take the same into account as and when they intend to make any appointments to the relevant post. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Date:05.10.2005 Note: Furnish copy in three days. (B/o.) TS
