THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
WRIT PETITION NO.2090 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 inaction of the respondents for not absorbing and regularizing the petitioners service into the Municipal Administration and Urban Development Department from the PR & RD Department, as illegal, arbitrary and contrary to the provisions of the A.P. Municipal Ministerial Service Rules and pass such other order."
Though the petitioner made several allegations against the
respondents, during hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner
limited his request to dispose of the recommendation made by the
Director of Municipal Administration, Gorantla, Guntur District, the
2nd respondent herein to the Principal Secretary to Government,
Municipal Administration & Urban Develoopment, A.P. Secretariat,
Velagapudi, Amaravati, the 1st respondent herein vide letter in
Roc.No.20026/60/2018/A1, dated 04.10.2018, without touching the
merits of the case.
Learned Government Pleader for Services-III appearing for
respondents readily agreed to dispose of the recommendation dated
04.10.2018 made by the 2nd respondent to the 1st respondent.
In view 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 be
issued, in view of the judgment of the Apex Court in "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
2019 (8) SCALE 544
in overburdened adjudicatory institutions. But, they do not service to
the cause of justice. As the learned counsel for the petitioner himself
requested to issue a direction to the 1st respondent to dispose of the
recommendation dated 04.10.2018 made by the 2nd respondent,
I find no other alternative, except to issue such direction.
In the result, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the
1st respondent to dispose of the recommendation dated 04.10.2018
made by the 2nd respondent, in accordance with law, within a month
from today. No costs.
All pending applications shall also stand closed.
