The petitioner, before being appointed as part-time  clerk<br \/>\nin  the village panchayat of Kadachanallur, Tiruchengode Division, in the year<br \/>\n1990, was also an extra departmental post master in  the  very  same  village.<br \/>\nFor  being appointed as a part-time clerk, the Department of Posts, Government<br \/>\nof India issued a letter dated 1.2.90 permitting him to join  as  a  part-time<br \/>\nclerk without  affecting  the  working hours of the branch post office.  After<br \/>\nhis appointment as part-time clerk, on 28.12.90, the petitioner was also  made<br \/>\na f ull time clerk in the very same panchayat as from 1.1.91 on a consolidated<br \/>\npay  of  Rs.440\/-, as could be seen from the communication of the Commissioner<br \/>\ndated 21.5.91.    The  said  position  was  reiterated   in   the   subsequent<br \/>\ncommunication  of  the  Commissioner  of  Pallipalayam  Panchayat  Union dated<br \/>\n19.7.91.  Therefore,  it  became  certain  that  the  petitioner&#8217;s  status  as<br \/>\npanchayat  union&#8217;s  servant in the post of a clerk was confirmed except to the<br \/>\neffect that he was getting a consolidated pay initially of a sum of  Rs.440\/-,<br \/>\nwhich has  now  been  raised  to Rs.800\/-.  In the above stated circumstances,<br \/>\npursuant to the direction of the District Collector, Salem,  the  Pallipalayam<br \/>\npanchayat union called upon the petitioner by a communication dated 16.4.92 to<br \/>\nexercise  his option and make it clear as to whether he would like to continue<br \/>\nas  panchayat  union  servant  or  carry  on  the  other  avocation  of  extra<br \/>\ndepartmental post  master.    It  was the above communication which came to be<br \/>\nchallenged by the petitioner in the present O.A.  in O.A.No.2133 of 1992.\n<\/p>\n<p>                3.  Having regard to the above said factors, the Tribunal  has<br \/>\nheld  that inasmuch as the petitioner has become a full time panchayat servant<br \/>\nas from 1.1.91, there was  every  justification  in  the  panchayat  union  in<br \/>\ncalling  upon  the petitioner to exercise his option and make the stand clear.<br \/>\nWe are also of the considered view that where there is widespread unemployment<br \/>\nprevalent in our country, a person cannot be permitted to hold  two  lucrative<br \/>\nposts  in Government service at the same time and thereby deprive of one other<br \/>\nperson of his legitimate right to have his livelihood by securing at  least  a<br \/>\npart time employment either in the State service or Central service.  It would<br \/>\nbe a source of livelihood for that other person to fulfill his other essential<br \/>\nobligations.   Viewed  in that respect, we find the claim of the petitioner to<br \/>\nbe highly unreasonable and unjustified when he insists that the respondent can<br \/>\nnever call upon the petitioner to exercise his option to  continue  either  in<br \/>\nthe  post  of  panchayat service or retain his avocation as extra departmental<br \/>\npost master.\n<\/p>\n<p>                4.  Looked at from any angle, we do not find any illegality in<br \/>\nthe order of the Tribunal, on the other hand, we find  a  totally  unjustified<br \/>\nclaim  having  been made on behalf of the petitioner when he came forward with<br \/>\nthe present O.A.  In such circumstances, we do not find any merit in this writ<br \/>\npetition.  The writ petition, therefore, fails and the same is dismissed.   No<br \/>\ncosts.  Consequently,  W.P.M.P.No.17052  of  2004  is  also  dismissed.    The<br \/>\npetitioner shall exercise his option to the respondent within one  month  from<br \/>\nthis date.\n<\/p>\n<p>Index:  Yes<br \/>\nWebsite:  Yes<br \/>\nsra<br \/>\nTo\n<\/p>\n<p>1.
