                        -----------------------------------------



             Dated this the 29th  day  of  March,  2007



                                   JUDGMENT

The petitioner is an employee of a State Public Sector

Undertaking and the first respondent is its Managing Director.

The grievance of the petitioner pertains to allotment of official

quarters. It is contended that overlooking his entitlement for

allotment of quarters, the second respondent was preferred by

the first respondent and it is also contended that such allotment

is liable to be interfered by this Court. The petitioner has

approached the first respondent by filing Ext.P5 representation.

Counsel for the first respondent submits that the Company has

laid down relevant criteria for allotment of quarters, and under

that criteria, seniority is not the only factor to be taken note off.

In the nature of the order, I propose to pass, notice need not be

issued to respondent No.2.

2. Since Ext.P5 representation is pending with the first

W.P.(C)No.8734/2007 :2:

respondent, it would be proper that the petitioner is informed of

the position based on the above criteria, so that, he will know

where he stands as far as his entitlement for allotment of

quarters is concerned.

3. The writ petition is disposed of directing the first

respondent to consider Ext.P5 and send appropriate reply to the

petitioner, as early as possible, in any event, within one month

from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment.
