                Prayer: Writ Appeal filed under Clause 15 of Letters Patent, against the order of

                                   For Respondent               : Mr.A.K.Manickam
                                                                  Standing Counsel for Government


                                                       JUDGMENT

[Judgment of the Court was delivered by T.S.SIVAGNANAM,J.]

We have heard Mr.T.Lajapathi Roy, learned counsel appearing for the

appellant and Mr.A.K.Manickam, learned Government Counsel appearing for

the respondents.

2. The appellant is the writ petitioner, who sought for issuance of a

Writ of Certiorarified Mandamus to quash the order dated 21.06.2012, passed

by the fourth respondent and consequential memorandum dated 27.03.2021 and

for a direction to regularise his services.

3. Admittedly, the appellant does not have any vested right to claim

that he should be allotted to a particular Department in a recruitment conducted

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis/

W.A.(MD)No.1340 of 2021

by the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission in respect of a non-OT post.

Merely because in the counselling, the appellant might have adopted to School

Education Department, that does not mean that he has to be allotted in the

School Education Department. Various factors are taken into consideration for

drawal of the select list and allotment to various Departments. Therefore, if the

appellant was really in need of a Government job, he ought to have joined the

Industries Department, but, rather abandoned the same and was continuously

litigating, stating that he has to be in the School Education Department.

4. Therefore, the learned Single Bench rightly declined to interfere

with the impugned order. Thus, we find no ground has been made out by the

appellant to interfere with the order passed in the writ petition. Accordingly, the

Writ appeal fails and dismissed. No Costs. Consequently, connected

miscellaneous petition is closed.
