Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-23-1999

Reported in: 1999(3)ALD80; 1999(2)ALT787

ORDER1. In these batch of writ petitions the important questions that arise for consideration are, whether the eligibility criterion for making appointment to a particular post has to be prescribed by the appointing authority, in this case, common cadre authority or a selection committee constituted for selecting the candidates and whether the eligibility criterion has to be prescribed with reference to the date of vacancies or with reference to the date of interview when the post is sought to be filled up at a latter date due to administrative exigencies. Another substantial question that arise for consideration is that when the employees drawn from two sources have been integrated and declared as one cadre, whether it is open to the appointing authority to fill up the vacancies that remained unfilled before the merger has taken place. The facts are not very much disputed.2. In the year 1985 Act 7/64 of Andhra Pradesh Co-operative Societies Act (for short 'the Act') was amended by Act...

The notice was issued on 9-11-1998 for the meeting to be held on 1 -12-1998 at 11.00 a.m. The sole contention raised by the learned Counsel for the petitioner is that since the notice in Form-V did not have the copy of the proposed motion of no confidence in Form-11 as the true copy, inasmuch as it did not contain the names or signatures of the persons, who delivered the notice of no-confidence in Form-11 to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Guntur, the vote of no-confidence cannot be sustained.2.
