JUDGMENT
The petitioner is a Vocational Teacher (MLT) who is now posted in
GVHSC (G), B.P. Angadi, Thirur, Malappuram District. He is the second
rank holder in B.Sc. (MLT) Degree examination held in December, 1999.
The petitioner is a native of Kannur District. Ext.P2 is the advice memo
issued by the Public Service Commission to the petitioner. Thereafter, he
was appointed as per Ext.P3. According to the petitioner, candidates who
are lower in the ranked list, have accommodated in their native districts and
even though there were six vacancies of MLT Teachers in Kannur District,
there were only three candidates advised who were born and brought up in
Kannur District. The petitioner has pointed out certain personal problems
which required his presence in his native place. Accordingly, he has sought
for a posting in Kannur District, as per Ext.P4 even prior to his
appointment. That was not considered. Recently, the petitioner has filed
Exts.P7 and P8 representations before the Director of Vocational Higher
Secondary Education, in the matter. The petitioner seeks for an expeditious
disposal of the representations, as according to him, there are existing
wpc 32527/2009 2
vacancies to which he could be given a posting.
2. Heard learned Govt. Pleader for the respondents. There will be a
direction to the second respondent to take a decision on Exts.P7 and P8 in
accordance with law, after hearing the petitioner, within a period of six
weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs.
(T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.)
