Pursuant to the notification dated 30.12.2008, when the respondent University conducted a written test to select suitable candidates for the post of Sweeper/Cleaner, the petitioners, being successful, had their names reflected in Ext.P1 short list. Later, owing to the subsequent developments, the selection process has not been proceeded with further. Complaining of inordinate delay, the petitioners have approached this Court. 2. Through a judgment dated 24.10.2014 in W.P.(C) No. 29072 of 2011, this Court, dealing with the issue, has held as follows:
“In that view of the matter, the action of the 1st respondent in issuing Ext.P6 communication to the 2nd respondent University cannot be held valid. Resultantly, I quash Ext.P6 communication as illegal and declare that it shall be open to the 2nd respondent University to proceed with the selection process that was initiated pursuant to Ext.P1 notification for appointment to the post of Sweeper cum cleaner in the respondent University. As considerable W.P.(C) No. 30537/2014 -2-
time has elapsed since the calling of candidates through Ext.P1 notification and scheduling the interview to be held in respect of those found eligible, I think it necessary to direct the 2nd respondent University to take steps for completion of the selection process and make appointments within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.”
In the light of the above pronouncement, I do not see any cause surviving in this matter for consideration. Accordingly, this writ petition is closed holding that the grievance of the petitioners stands redressed.
