                                       JUDGMENT

A.Muhamed Mustaque, J.

These original petitions were filed by the parties in OA

No.157 of 2024 on the file of the Kerala Administrative Tribunal,

Thiruvananthapuram (Additional Bench, Ernakulam). They challenge

a revised select list for the promotion in the post of Assistant

Registrar of Co-operative Department. The challenge is regarding the

inclusion of differently abled candidates.

2. According to the applicants, they were not included

in the original select list and they were included subsequently in the

list based on a challenge made by the fourth respondent in OA.

However, it is submitted that the fourth respondent is not included in

the list. According to the applicants, the inclusion of differently abled

candidates is in excess of the quota prescribed for them under the

Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016. They sought stay of

proceedings based on Annexure-A10. That was declined.

Apprehending that the promotion will be effected by including the

promotion of differently abled candidates, the petitioners approached

this Court.

O.P.(KAT)Nos.63 and 117 of 2024

3. It is submitted by the learned Government Pleader

that there exist 77 vacancies in the post of Assistant Registrar and

therefore, promotion will have to be effected.

4. The learned counsel for the fourth respondent and

others submitted that the only issue to be decided by the Tribunal is

that whether quota for the disabled persons will have to be reckoned

based on the vacancies exist or not. The learned senior counsel

submitted that it has to be reckoned based on cadre strength. This

is the only issue to be decided by the Tribunal. We cannot answer

this issue in this case in as much as that the original petition itself is

pending before the Tribunal.

5. Therefore, in the light of the facts and circumstances

as above, we pass the following orders;

The Government is free to promote candidates in the

select list except candidates 5 to 8. However, four vacancies in the

post of the Assistant Registrar shall not be filled and the Government

will have to wait till a decision is taken in these matters. The

Government also have a case in the inclusion of the differently abled

candidates in excess of the quota prescribed for the disabled

candidates.

O.P.(KAT)Nos.63 and 117 of 2024

6. In the light of the short issue involved and taking

note of the fact that four vacancies are now kept on hold, we request

the Tribunal to dispose the matter itself at the earliest.

7. The learned counsel for the fourth respondent

fervently pleaded before us that this Court may direct the Tribunal to

dispose the matter in a time bound manner. We will not be justified

in issuing any direction to the Tribunal to dispose the case in a time

bound manner. However, nothing prevent the petitioner to approach

the Tribunal for early disposal of the case. The learned counsel for

the appellants also submitted that they will co-operate with the early

disposal of the case. Taking note of the nature of the issue, we also

request the Tribunal to dispose the matter at the earliest.

With the above direction, O.P.(KAT)Nos.63 of 2024 and

117 of 2024 are disposed of.
