JUDGMENT
The petitioner is aggrieved by the selection to the post of Kazhakam
and Counter Clerk in Cherpulassery Sree Ayyappankavu Devaswom.
According to the petitioner, he is the rightful claimant for the said post, but
has been denied the benefit of appointment without any just cause.
Challenging the same, he has filed Ext.P7 before the first respondent,
Commissioner, Malabar Devaswom Board. It was rejected as per Ext.P8
communication stating that he has not remitted the notice charge and court
fee along with the same. It is submitted that immediately after receipt of
Ext.P8, the petitioner has re-presented the same after curing the defect. But
meanwhile, the 4th respondent has been appointed on temporary basis as
Kazhakam.
2. In the light of the fact that Ext.P7 has been duly re-presented
pursuant to the direction in Ext.P8, the first respondent will have to take
appropriate action on Ext.P7 after hearing all parties including the newly
appointed person. Therefore, there will be a direction to the first respondent
to consider and pass orders on Ext.P7 as expeditiously as possible, with
WPC 182/2009 2
notice to all parties concerned, within a period of two months from the date
of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will be free to file any
petition seeking interim order in the matter.
The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs.
(T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.)
