The relief sought for in this writ petition is for a direction to appoint the petitioner in the post of Tap inspector in the respondent Municipality by providing upper age relaxation under 12(d) of Tamil nadu State and Subordinate Service Rules and other relevant Government Orders of the State of Tamil Nadu based on the representation made by the petitioner on 03.03.2014.
2. The learned counsel appearing for the writ petitioner states that the writ petitioner is fully qualified for appointment to the post of Tap Inspector in the respondent Municipality. This apart, the writ petitioner cannot be considered as overaged candidate, in view of the fact that the age relaxation was granted under Rule 12(d) of the Tamil Nadu State and Subordinate Service Rules, in respect of the writ petitioner. However, the respondent has not considered the Rules and the Government Orders in this regard and rejected the candidature. The writ petitioner has submitted a representation on 03.03.2014 to consider his case in accordance with the above said provision and the same is yet to be considered.
3. Thus, without going into the merits of the matter, direct the respondent to consider the representation submitted by the writ petitioner on 03.03.2014 on merits and in accordance with law within a period of twelve weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petitioner is directed to enclose the copy of the representation and relevant documents along with the orders passed in this writ petition.
4. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed of. No costs. Consequently connected miscellaneous petition is also closed.
