This Writ Petition is being disposed of at the admission stage with the consent of both the counsel.

Learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are working as NMR's with the respondents. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondents are not considering their cases for regularization of service though they have rendered their services for more than 30 years. He further contended that in terms of G.O.Ms.No.212, dated 22-04-1994 and also in view of the law laid down by this Court in W.P.No.33936 of 2011 dated 02-05-2018 and batch following the judgments of the Supreme Court in The Secretary, State of Karnataka Vs. Umadevi1, and B. Sreenivasulu Vs. Nellore Municipal Corporation in Civil Appeal No.6318 of 2015 dated 17-08-2015, their cases may be considered by the respondents.

Therefore, he submitted that a direction may be given to the respondents to regularize the services of the petitioners in terms of the judgments of the Supreme Court referred to above. Learned Government Pleader for Services-II appearing for the respondents states that the respondents shall consider the case of the petitioners for regularization in view of the law laid down by the Supreme Court and appropriate orders would be passed.

With the above observations, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs.

As a sequel, the miscellaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed.
