Citation : 2021 Latest Caselaw 1072 AP
Judgement Date : 23 February, 2021
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
WRIT PETITION NO.4394 OF 2021
ORDER:
This writ petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution
of India seeking the following relief:
"to issue a Writ, Order or Direction more particularly one in the
nature of Writ of Mandamus declaring the action of the respondents
not promoting the petitioner to the superintendent post, though
qualified in departmental test as per university guidelines, is illegal,
arbitrary and principles of natural justice and pass such other order
or orders."
2. Though the petitioner made several allegations against the
respondents, during hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner Sri
Naram Nageswara Rao requested this Court without touching the
merits of the case, to issue a direction to the respondents to dispose
of the representation submitted by the petitioner dated 02.06.2020.
3. Learned Government Pleader for Education appearing for
respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation of the
petitioner dated 02.06.2020, if any, pending with the respondent
authorities.
4. In view of the submission of the learned Government Pleader
for Education, I need not decide the truth or otherwise of the
allegations made in the petition. This Court is conscious that no
such direction be issued, in view of the judgment of the Apex Court
in the case of The Government of India v. P.Venkatesh1, wherein
the Apex Court held that such orders may make for a quick or easy
disposal of cases in overburdened adjudicatory institutions. But,
they do no service to the cause of justice. As the learned counsel for
2019 (8) SCALE 544
the petitioner himself requested to issue a direction to dispose of the
representation dated 02.06.2020 submitted by the petitioner, I find
no other alternative except to issue such direction.
5. In the result, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the
respondents to dispose of the representation submitted by the
petitioner dated 02.06.02020, in accordance with law, within four (4)
weeks from today. No costs.
The miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall also
stand closed.
