CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI &
P.N. DESHMUKH, JJ.
MARCH 22, 2016.
ORAL JUDGMENT : (Per B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
Rule. Rule is made returnable forthwith and heard
finally with the consent of Shri Naik with Shri Gaikwad, learned
counsel for the petitioner, Shri Fulzele, learned Additional GP for
respondent No. 1 and Shri Jagtap with Shri Godbole, learned
counsel for respondent Nos. 2 & 3.
2. After hearing, we find that communication dated
16.12.2014 sent by Respondent Nos. 2 & 3 to the petitioner is not
satisfactory. The father of the petitioner expired while in service
when the petitioner was minor. His mother thereafter had sought
employment and vide communication dated 18.11.2008, her name
which was included in waiting list perhaps at Sr. No. 1, was
deleted. The petitioner, after attaining majority, has renewed the
request.
3. In this situation, in stead of adjourning the matter and
asking the petitioner to amend the petition or then directing the
respondents to place on record all the material, it will be in the
fitness of things if the petitioner is permitted to move a fresh
representation in accordance with law within a period of three
weeks from today.
4. If such a representation containing all the necessary
data is moved by the petitioner within a period of three weeks,
Respondent No. 2 shall consider it in accordance with law within
next eight weeks. If necessary an opportunity of hearing shall be
extended to the petitioner.
5. Needless to mention that all rival contentions of the
parties are kept open and can be gone into, if occasion therefor
arises in future.
6. It is clarified that the impugned communication dated
16.12.2014 shall not come in the way of such fresh consideration.
7. Thus, writ petition is partly allowed and disposed of.
Rule is made absolute in above terms. However, in the facts and
circumstances of the case, there shall be no order as to costs.
