The relief sought for by the petitioner is to consider his representation dated 16.08.2019 sent to the respondent and to appoint him as a sanitary helper.
2.The petitioner is a permanent resident of Mettur Dam, Periyar Nagar, Ward No.20, Navappatti Group Village, Mettur Taluk, Salem District. He had passed Higher Secondary education in March 2012 and he belongs to backward community and registered his name in the District Employment Ofice, Salem on 20.06.2013 and the same is renewed from time to time. While so, the respondent issued notification dated 29.06.2019 calling for application for filling up the post of sanitary helper and the age limit is 18 to 60. The petitioner is eligible to apply for the said post and hence he submitted his application on 09.07.2019. Thereafter, he was called for an interview on 15.07.2019. But, he was not provided with an appointment or any https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

For ready reference, the petitioner is directed to enclose a copy of the representation along with the copy of this order to enable the respondent to pass orders.
