JUDGMENT

(Judgment of the Court was delivered by J.NISHA BANU, J.) The present Writ Appeal is filed challenging the order passed by this Court in W.P.No.30375 of 2021 dated 03.09.2021.

2. The respondent in the Writ Petition is the appellant before this Court.

3. The Writ Petition was filed for the issuance of a Writ of Mandamus directing the respondent to hold a fresh counselling session for the petitioner enabling her to express her choice of a post included in the Combined Subordinate Services Examination - I as a Open Competition or Open Competition (Woman) candidate appropriate to her rank position : 770 mentioned in the Counselling Schedule for 16.10.2012 authorised by the respondent.

4. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, the learned single Judge opined that the non selection of petitioner and refusal to give appointment to the petitioner is highly arbitrary, illegal, unjust and inhumane and that the petitioner is rightfully entitled to get appointment and issued a positive direction to the respondent to give her appointment on the basis of Combined Subordinate Services Examination-I conducted by the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission in the year 2012. The respondent is further directed to address the

Government to provide her an appointment in the suitable post as per her rank and talent, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Challenging the same, the present Writ Appeal is filed.

5. On a perusal of the records, it is seen that the Writ Petition was of the year 2012 and the same was allowed in the year 2021. Even in the present appeal, the appellant has not even taken notice to the respondent. In such circumstances, we are not inclined to entertain this appeal.

6. Accordingly, this Writ Appeal is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
