Dr.M.C.Sidda Reddy, v. State Of Andhra Pradesh,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE SANJAY KUMAR AND THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE M. SEETHARAMA MURTI WRI T PETI TI ON No.32426 of 2016 ORDER: (Per Hon'ble Sri Justice Sanjay Kumar) The unsuccessful applicant in O.A.No.2288 of 2016 on the file of the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad, is before this Court aggrieved by its dismissal vide order dated 16.08.2016. The grievance of the petitioner/applicant was with regard to the provisional seniority list of Junior Assistants/Typists brought out by the Superintendent of Police, Chittoor District. The Tribunal observed that as the seniority list was only provisional in nature, it would be open to the petitioner/applicant to file his objections thereto if he had any grievance therewith. The Tribunal further observed that the statute also provides him the remedy of appeal against the final seniority list as and when it is issued.

We find no illegality in the approach of the Tribunal warranting interference in exercise of writ jurisdiction. A provisional seniority list is issued for the purpose of inviting objections from those claiming to be affected thereby. Without taking recourse to such procedure, it is not open to the person so affected to straightaway seek judicial redressal. The writ petition is devoid of merit and is accordingly dismissed. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall also stand dismissed. No order as to costs.
