In the reference 4th cited, the Hon,ble High Cou t in its interim directions dt.6.O7.2022 in IA No.1 of 2022 in Wp.No.6lB of 2022 has passed the following orders; "Pending consideration of the writ petition, lhe 2nd respondent is directed to consider the tetter dt.04.02.2021 stated to have been addres::ed by the riommissioner of panchayat Raj & Rural Development to the 2'd respondent.,, The CPR & RE, Hyderabad in his letter 2nd :ited, has ] furnished that the Telangana panchayat Raj vlinisterial Association State unit and 26 Typists from Ranga Redly district and 14 Typists from Karimnagar District have sr_rtrmitted a representation submitting that, most of the typ sts have completed reasonable years of service in the cadre of .ypist and due to lack of faculty to impart the proper trainin(, lack of availability of typewriting institutions in Rural A-eas and prolonged office hours in addition to attending to th 3ir family problems, they could not acquire Type Writing qualification and they continue to be as a temporary empioyees without regularizing their services and also deprived for further )romotion as Senior Assistant. Moreover, after rapid usage of cortputers in Panchayat Raj Institutions. only computers are being u: ed in the offices. Hence, they requested that appropriate relief ;hould be given to them. 4. The CPR & RE, Hyd has further stated that, as seen from the representation and reports of the Chiet Executive Officers, Zilla Praja Parishads, Rangareddy and Karimnagar dist.icts, it is observed that, 26 Typists from Rangareddy district and _ 4 Typists from Karimnagar district who are appointed on Comoassionate Grounds on conditional basis have not acquired the pr,3 requisite qualification prescribed in the rules so far though the extended time allowed of four years in the appointment orders is already elapsed. .The matter having been examined, it is not corr€ ct to say : that the typewriting institutions are closed or not ava lable. In fact the petitioners of erstwhile Rangareddy District are close to 6 i \ SN. J wP r 4021 2021 Hyderabad city and there is no shortage of typewriting institutions. Further most of these petitioner were appointed in between 2015 to 2O2L i.e.,7 years ago but they have not shown any interest to acquire typing skills. On perusal of'the report furnished by Chief Executive Officers it is observed that their €olleagues who were working in the same District have appeared / passed the typing exam whereas the petitioners have merely cited excuses.

6. In this connection, as per para 2(vii) of G.O.Ms'No'612. G.A.(Ser.A)Dept., dt.30.10.1991, it has been ordered that where Typewriting is an essential qualification to a post the candidate who do not possess these qualifications may be considered for appointment to such categories of posts under the scheme of compassionate appointments, subject to the condition that they should acquire such qualification within two years after such appointment. 7 In the reference 1st cited, Government have issued orders that, in cases of dependent of the deceased Government employees, who do not possess the minimum Educational qualification or Typewriting qualification prescribed for the post to which they are appointed with a condition to acquire such requisite qualification within the stipulated period prescribed in the Government orders, fail to acquire such requisite qualification within that stipulated time, such candidates may be allowed/ given a further period of 2 (two) more years over and above the period prescribed in the Government orders as grace period to acquire such requisite Educational or Typewriting qualification prescribed for the post to which they were appointed. B. As per the above G.O., "if the candidates concerned fails to acquire the requisite educational or Type-writing qualifications even within the extended grace period, then he/she may be considered for appointment for a lower post such as an Attender where such educational or Typewriting qualification is not prescribed and accordingly he/she may be appointed in a lower post such as an Attender as if he/she is a fresh candidate, after obtaining the willingness of the candidate. If he/she is not willing to take the Iower post it shall be treated that there are no compelling reasons of poverty and such candidate be discharged from service. " I ,/. -a/ 7 SN. J \\,P I4021 2023

9. The appointments to the applicants as Typist rave been made on compassionate grounds and appointed conditi rnally with a condition to acquire Typewriting English Higher ,ard Telugu Higher within a period of (2) years from the date of ap pointment as per Cir. Memo. No.60681/Ser.A/2003-1, GAD, dt.l.:1.08.2003. Further some other conditlonally appointed typists whc have been appointed on similar conditions with petitioners, har e already acquired the Typewriting English Higher and Telugu Hiqlrer skills.

10. The applicants in WP.No.63a/2O22 appointed as Typists in ZPPS/MPPS on Compassionate Grc,unds on conditional basis during the years ot 2OL6/2OL7 /2OLg and they should pass qualification of Typewriting Te lugu and English Higher grades with in a period of four (4) years i.e 2 years + 2 years grace period. But they have not acquired the Typewriting qualification even within the extended grace period. Moreover, at the time of appointrlent, the Petitioners have given undertaking on conditiona grounds to acquire the requisite qualafication within rhe time prescribed, but failed to acquire the skills.

11. In light of the above and in compliance to the interim orders of the Hon'ble High Court, the prot,osal for relaxation of rules in respect of p.Sravya, Typist, Zpp, Medchal, Medchal Mandal Malkajgiri District and 22 other Typist<, for acquiring the typewriting qualificatio r English and Telugu Higher Grade duly amending the relevant iules and re-designate the post of Typist as Assistant cum Computer operator, has been examined and the same is not feasible for consideration as Ber para (6) of G.O,Ms.No,969, G.A(Sers.A) Dept., dt.27-1O-1995., and accordingly the request is hereby rejected.

12. The Director, PR&RE, Hyderabad and Chief Executive Officer, Vikarabad/Ranga Reddy/Medchal-Malkajgiri arr_. therefore requested to take further necessary action as per p,i ra (6) of G.O.Ms.No.969, G.A(Sers.A) Dept., dt.27-10-1995, in tre matter accordingly and also requested to serve these orde-s to the petitioners concerned and send the served copie; to the Government immediately.

Mr.P.Kishore Rao, learned standing counsel takes notice on behalf of the respondent No.3 and waives further notice. Registry is directed not to take out notice to respondents No.1 to 3 in view of this waiver. Learned Counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners are all graduates in computer science and have been appointed as Typists on compassionate grounds. He submitted that due to lack of Typewriting institutions, the petittoners have not been able to acquire the qualification of Typewriting within the time granted and therefore, they have sought relaxation of the said condition. However, their request has been rejected and a show cause notice has been issued to revert them to the lower posts. Challenging the same, the writ petitions have been filed. Learned counsel For the petitioners submitted. that vide G.O.Ms.No.1 dated 04.01.2022, the .Government of Telangana itself has relaxed the condition of obtaining the qualification of Typewriting in English and Telugu in respect of similarly placed candidates in the BC WelFare Department. It is submitted that in similar cases, the High Court of Andhra Pradesh has granted relief to the petitioners and this Court in W.P.No.39096 of 2022 vide orders dated 20.10.2022 also has granted interim suspension of the impugned order.

The learned counsel appearing on behalF of the petitioner contends that the subject issue is squarely covered by the Division Bench Jucigment of this Court dated 14.08.2019 passed in W.P. No. 11321 of 2019, the Division Bench Jurlgment of this Court dated 25.07.2024 passed in W.p.

6. The learned Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents does not dispute insofar as the relie, extended to other similarly situated persons but contends that :he said relief had not been extended to those employees workinc in panchayat Raj and Rural Development Department. The ler rned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner disputes : re same and places reliance on the Judgment dated 16.04.2021 passed in W.P.No.17966 ol 2O2O where under the petit oner therein 10 I SN, J wP 14021 2023 discharged the duty as typist in the office of Chief Executive Officer, Zilla Parishad, Kakinada, East Godavari The Aoex Court in the Judqment dat 7 oassed in Civil Aooeal Nos. 2L2 ot L979, 3214 of L979

22.11.1988 n 3518 of 1 n hri H h n nd othe V nl n of India hers at N .13 observ u nder: "The view that has been taken by this Court in the above, observation is that once a decision has been taken, there is a tendency to uphold it and a representation may not yield any fruitful purpose. Thus, even if any hearing was given to the employees of CORIL after the issuance of the impugned circular, that would not be any compliance with the rules of natural justice or avoid the mischief of arbitraries as contemplated by Article 14 of the Constitution. The High court, in our opinion, was perfectly justified in quashing the impugned circular".

8. In the said judgment it had been observed at para No.13 that once a decision has been taken, the said decision has to be upheld and the said decision should be extended to other similarly situated individuals and the same cannot be denied arbitrarily in violation of Article 14 of the Constitution of India. \ t! 1l SN.

9. A bare perusal of the record clearly indicates that with regard to junior Stenographers who had been appoint:d between 05.03.1987 and 14'07'1998, a relaxation had been provided from acquiring qualification of Typewriting and Shorti,and Higher Grade as per t3.O.Ms'No'116 dated 29'O2'2OOB' Similarly' G.O.Ms.No.68, dated 11'03'2010 as borne on rer:ord filed as material document by the petitioner in support of the petitioner's case also indicates a similar relief in respect of Junior Accountants appointed on compassionate grounds :onditionally and are working in T & A service as on 27 'tO'2007 '

J wP r102r 2021 It is no doubt true that, pursuant to the unfortunate death of the respondent's husband, while working as Senior Assistnat, the a pplica nt-respon dent was initially appointed as a Typist with a condition that she should.acquire the necessary qualification in Typewriting within a period of two years from the date of initial appointment. It is also not in controversy that, despite the time granted by the authorities, the respondent herein could not acquire the necessary qualification, as per the said condition. It is not in dispute that the applicant herein is a graduate in Computers and also possesses PGDCA and also possesses Typewriting English Lower Grade qualification. It is pertinent to note that the State Government granted relaxation in favour of certain class of employees, vide G.O.Ms.No. t16, GA (Ser.B) Department, dated 29.O2.2O08, having noticed the non-existence of institutions. It is also not in Typewriting tra ining in2 1 h n qranted relaxation from acquirino Tvpewritanq oualification in respect of Treasurv Department. The Tribunal also noted about the non-existence of Typewriting trainlng institutions and the usage of Computers in all the offices.

11. The said writ petition filed by the respondents had been dismissed upholding the order dated 06.11.2017 lrassed by the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal in OA.

No. 1856 of 2Ot7 for relaxatiorr of acquiring the Typewriting qualification and English Highe-Grade and Telugu Lower Grade. L2. In the recent Divisi n Bench Judoment of this Court dated 25-O 7.2024 oassed in W. P. No. 283,r1 of2 t4 dealinq with an identic al situation at oara Nos ,7 to 12 it is observed as u der: "7. The learned Government pleader further contended that the Tribunal has failed to appreciate .the fact that the relaxation from passing the typewriting and shorthand higher grade in Telugu given vide G.O.Ms.No.116, GA (Ser_ B) Department, dated 29.O2.2O0a is applicable orly to the Junior Stenographers appointed between 05.03.19g7 and l4 i '.i SN, J wP 1.102 t 2021

14.07.1998, but not to the Typists and so also one time exemption was granted vide G.O.Ms.No.783, Fin. (Admn.III) Department, dated 31.12.2001 to Junior Assistants in Treasuries and Accounts Department from passing typewriting English higher grade because the said qualification was not prescribed in any other Departments to the equivalent category of Junior Accountants, however, said exemption cannot be extended to the Typists, whose services are governed under A.P. Ministerial Service Rules. 8. The learned Government Pleader had further contended that the Tribunal has not appreciated the fact that one time relaxation accorded vide G.O.Ms.No.68, Finance (Admn.III) Department, dated 11.03.2010 from passing typewriting English higher grade is applicable only to the Junior Accountants, but not to the Typist category. it is further contended that respondent no.1 was given notice in the year 2003 and two more years were extended to acquire required qualification, but he could not acquire the same in ten years and that respondent no.1 cannot blame the Department for not initiating timely action against him, and therefore. the petitioners have rightly issued the impugned show-cause notice dated O9.O2.2OL2 and the Government Orders referred to above cannot be made applicable to the case of the respondent no.1 and prayed to set aside the order dated O9.O7.2013 passed by the Tribunal and allow the writ petition. 9. Admittedly, respondent no.1 was temporarily ."**---.:r3.j:"=L=JJ_r-:Lei-:9P.::g*e*':::1:- condition to aiquire the requisite qualification i.e., typewriting Higher in both Telugu and English within two years vide proceedings dated 2A.L[.ZOOL, but the l5 , SN, J wP 14021 2023 respondent no.1 did not acquire the said requisite qualification within the time stipulat(ld' The respondent no.1 submitted represental ion on 06.1O.2OO3 to extend two more years to acrlulre the said qualification. Though, the grace periotl of two more years w.e,l. 27.12.2OO3 to 27'12'21)05 was granted to the respondent no.1 vide proceedings dated 07,O1.2OO4, he did not acquire :he said qualification. However, the petitioners did not take any action even after expiry of grace period q ranted to the respondent no.1 for acquiring the requisite qualification and kept quiet for a period of six years after grace period and continued the responrlent no'1 for more than six years later and issued shrw-cause notice only on 09.02.2012. After having cont nued the respondent no.1 for more than a decade ar'd having utilized his services as Typast for such long p':riod, the petitioners cannot ask the respondent no.1 t'r give his willingness to take appointment in the cadre of lowest post i.e,, Attender as he did not acquire the requisite qualification of pass in typewriting higher g -ade both in Telugu and English. 10. Furthermore, as per the G.O.Ms.No. I16, dated 29.02.2008, the Government had granted exeme:ion to the individuals from passing typewriting and shorth rnd higher grade in Telugu and subsequently, the same benefit was extended to the Junior Accountants of Treal;uries and Accounts,ride G.O.Ms.No.68, dated 11.03.2010.

11. wou ld Perusal of the imPugned disclose that the Tribunal order dated ()9.07.2013 on due consirleration of t6 .t SN, J wP l:1021 202i G.O.Ms.No.116, dated 29.02.2OO8 and G.O.Ms.No.68 dated 11.03.2010 and also in view of fact that the respondent no.1/ applicant was allowed to continue for a decade as L.D.Typist and utilized his services, has come to a conclusion that the impugned show-cause notice dated 09.O2.2O12 issued by the 3'd petitioner herein as improper and thus, declared the same as illegal. !2. In view of the above discussion and facts of the case, this Court is of the considered view that having continued the respondent no.1/applicant for such long period as L.D. Typist and having utilized his services for such period, issuing impugned show-cause notice dated 09.O2.2OL2 to revert the applicant to a lower post after a long lapse of period would be unjust. Therefore, interfering with the settled position after lapse of a decade is not feasible at this point of time and is contrary to the well established principles of equity and justice. Thus, we are not inclined to interfere with the order of the Tribunal passed in O.A.No.1088 of 2Ol2 with VMA No.557 of 2012".

13. This Court opines that the petitioner is also entitled for grant of similar relief and the petitioner cannot be denied the benefits granted to similarly situated persons like the petitioner. L4.
