Judgement Date : 1 March, 2021
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY
WRIT PETITION No.5028 OF 2021
ORDER:-
This writ petition is filed under Article 226 of the
Constitution of India seeking the following relief:
"......to issue appropriate Writ, Order or direction more
particularly WRIT OF MANDAMUS declaring the action of the
Respondents 2 and 3 in not proceeding with the notification
No.1/NHM/2020 dt.01.10.2020 and keeping the post of Programme Officer, ITDA (PTG CHENCHU), Srisailam in vacant is illegal, arbitrary, unconstitutional and consequently direct the Respondents 2 and 3 to proceed with the notification No.1/NHM/2020 dt.01.10.2020 and fill the post of Programme Officer, ITDA (PTG CHENCHU), Srisailam by duly considering the qualifications and representations of the Petitioner and recommendations made by the other officials and pass....."
2. Though the petitioner made several allegations against the
respondents, during hearing, Sri G.Ramachandra Reddy, learned
counsel for the petitioner, requested this Court, without touching
the merits of the case, to issue a direction to respondent Nos.2 and
3 to dispose of the representation submitted by the petitioner on
6.1.2021 keeping in view the recommendations, dated 18.1.2021,
forwarded by the Director of Tribal Welfare, Vijayawada to
respondent No.3.
3. Learned Government Pleader for Services-II appearing for the
respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation of the
petitioner, dated 6.1.2021, if any, pending with the respondent
authorities keeping in view the recommendations, dated
18.1.2021, forwarded by the Director of Tribal Welfare, Vijayawada
to respondent No.3.
4. In view of the submission of the learned Government Pleader
for Services-II, 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 the petitioner himself requested to issue a direction to dispose
of the representation, dated 6.1.2021, 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
respondent Nos.2 and 3 to dispose of the representation submitted
by the petitioner on 6.1.2021 keeping in view the
recommendations, dated 18.1.2021, forwarded by the Director of
Tribal Welfare, Vijayawada to respondent No.3, within a period of
four (4) weeks from today. There shall be no order as to costs.
Miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, in this Writ Petition
shall stand closed.
