JUDGMENT
Petitioner is a post graduate degree holder and obtained
a qualification of Higher Diploma in Co-operation. On the
basis of the qualification joined the service of the 1 st
respondent Society as peon on 1.2.2006. Vide order dated
30.4.2009 she was promoted as Junior Clerk. Kerala Public
Service Commission invited applications for filling up the
50% vacancies in District Co-operative Banks set apart for
employees of affiliated societies. The petitioner applied for
issuance of service certificate in the manner prescribed by
the Public Service Commission vide Ext.P8. The certificate
Ext.P9 was issued with incorrect particulars and details,
resulting into submission of representation Ext.P10. Since
no action was taken and as the last date for submission of
application was expiring the petitioner was constrained to
submit her application online. For the purpose of correction
of discrepancies in the service certificate petitioner WP(C) NO. 1093 OF 2013
approached this Court vide W.P.(C) No.1124 of 2010. Vide
interim order dated 13.1.2010 Ext.P11, it was ordered that
the application of the petitioner during the pendency of the
writ petition would not be rejected on the ground of service
certificate.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that
the petitioner was served with two orders issued by the 3 rd
respondent holding that service certificate issued by the 2 nd
respondent was proper and the action of the part-time
Administrator in reverting the petitioner and entering the
same in the service book of the petitioner as per resolution
No.9 dated 20.8.2009 was proper, Exts.P14 and P15. The
aforementioned orders are not sustainable on account of the
fact that the petitioner was not given any opportunity of
hearing while disposing of the representation by the 3 rd
respondent. The notice of termination was challenged
before this Court. There is no representation on behalf of
the first respondent as the first respondent has been served
as per the report dated 16.7.2013.
WP(C) NO. 1093 OF 2013
3. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties
and appraised the paper book. By looking at the orders
Exts.14 and 15, they are not only evasive but have not
assigned any cogent reasons while declining the
representation for issuance of correction in the service
certificate and viz-a-viz prayer with regard to the reversion.
Without commenting on the merits of the matter, I
dispose of the writ petition by quashing Exts.P14 and P15
with regard to the relief for correction in the service
certificate and reversion and permitting the petitioner to
appear before the 3rd respondent Joint Registrar within a
period of 45 (forty five) days from the date of receipt of a
copy of this judgment. Liberty is granted to the petitioner to
submit fresh documents, if any. Let the decision be taken
within two months thereafter.
