T. Shaghill Ayan, v. State Of Andhra Pradesh, Municipal Administration And

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO W.P.No.7587 of 2015 O R D E R:

The petitioner sought for a writ of mandamus for declaring the action of the respondents in not considering his case for appointment, on compassionate grounds, either in Vijayawada Municipal Corporation or in Kurnool Municipal Corporation, as illegal. It is to be noted that Vijayawada Municipal Corporation and Kurnool Municipal Corporation are local bodies by virtue of the respective enactments. The conditions of service of employees of the local bodies must be got redressed, at the first instance, by approaching the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal created under the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985, as held by the Supreme Court in L. CHANDRA KUMAR v. UNION OF INDIA[1].

Hence, preserving the liberty to the writ petitioner to take recourse to law, this writ petition stands dismissed at the admission stage, but however, without costs.

Consequently, the miscellaneous petitions, if any, stand dismissed.
