Road Transport Corporation Workers Union Vs. Apsrtc, Hyd.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Aug-11-2000

Reported in: 2000(5)ALD614; 2000(6)ALT696; [2000(87)FLR698]

ORDER1. Heard both the Counsel. With their consent, the writ petition is being disposed of at the admission stage.2. The writ petition is filed for a writ of mandamus directing the respondent to issue day-to-day circulars on payment of usual charges and also to provide the bus pass warrant to the petitioner on par with other trade unions.3. Admittedly the petitioner's union is a registered union. Therefore, the General Secretary of the petitioners' union in my considered opinion is entitled for day-to-day circulars issued by the respondent-Corporation on payment of usual charges. Moreover the circulars issued by the Corporation are public documents and every citizen, particularly the leader of a trade union has a right of access to those documents. It is contended by the learned Counsel for the Corporation that the petitioners' union is a minority union and hence it is not entitled for the said circulars. This contention cannot be accepted for the reason that no discrimination can be s...

ORDER1. The question that falls for consideration in this writ petition is in a narrow compass i.e., whether the management is entitled to claim reimbursement of the salaries that were paid to the teachers for the period from 1-9-1994 to 26-12-1996 i.e., from the date of admitting the school to grant-in-aid to the date on which the services of the teachers working in un-aided posts were ultimately regularised by the Government.2. Since 1982 the petitioner's school started functioning and running class in Telugu and English mediums. As per the grant-in-aid rules, the school became eligible to be admitted to grant-in-aid according to Act No.22 of 1988. On an application filed by the Correspondent seeking admission of the school to grant-in-aid, the Government issued G.O. Ms. No.365, Education, (PS-2), dated 10-10-1994. In this G.O., several school including the petitioner's school were admitted to grant-in-aid. At S.No.13 in Annexure-I of the said G.O. four posts were admitted to grant-i...

M.S. Liberhan, C.J.1. In these appeals the common questions of fact and law have been raised.2. The State having decided locations for establishment of Medical Colleges and Dental Colleges, constituted a committee headed by a sitting Judge of this Court with the other members i.e., the Director of Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences and the Vice-Chancellor of NTR University of Health Sciences. The Committee was required to examine the applications in detail in accordance with the procedure provided and required to be followed.3. The learned Single Judge found that the function of the Committee is part of quasi-judicial or executive functions of the State. The High Court Judge ought not to associate and function as head of such Committee in view of the doctrine of separation of powers enshrined in Article 50 and further that it is not desirable for a sitting Judge to take part in the process of recommending eligible applicants for grant of essentiality certificate.

One T.Nageswara Rao (hereafter referred as 'casual employee') working at Cotton Research Station, Amaravathi, was placed at Serial No.30 in the seniority list and the relevant entry in the seniority list shows that he was appointed on 1-4-1990. The petitioner, which is a registered labour union, complains that the casual employee has in fact joined the service on 1-1-1975 and therefore, he ought to have been placed at Serial No.1.
