HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
W.P. No.44886 of 2018
O R D E R:-
This writ petition is filed for the following substantive relief:
".....to issue a writ of mandamus declaring the action of respondents 1 and 2 in
not considering the representation of the petitioner dated 24.11.2018 by filling up the post of Anganwadi worker in Kasaiveedhi, Kadapa Town, Kadapa District, as illegal and arbitrary and consequently direct respondents 1 and 2 to consider the petitioner's representation dated 24.11.2018."
Though Sri Venkata Raghu Mannepalli, learned counsel for the
petitioner, made several allegations against the respondents during the
course of hearing, he requested this Court, without touching the merits
of the case, to issue a direction to respondents 1 and 2 to dispose of the
representation submitted by the petitioner on 24.11.2018.
The learned Government Pleader for Services-III appearing for the
respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation of the
petitioner dated 24.11.2018, if any, pending with the respondent
authorities.
In view of the submission of the learned Government Pleader for
Services-III, I need not decide the truth or otherwise of the allegations
made in the petition. This Court is conscious that no such direction can
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 the petitioner himself
requested to issue a direction to dispose of the representations dated
24.11.2018 submitted by the petitioner, I find no other alternative
except to issue such direction.
2019 (8) SCALE 544
2 MSM,J
WP_44886_2018
In the result, the writ petition is disposed of directing the
respondents to dispose of the representation submitted by the petitioner
on 24.11.2018, in accordance with law, within a period of one month
from today. No order as to costs.
As a sequel, Miscellaneous Petitions, if any pending, shall stand
disposed of as infructuous.
