ORAL COMMON ORDER:

Heard Sri V. Nitesh, learned Counsel for the Writ Petitioner in W.P.No.11931 of 2023; Sri L. Sai Manoj, learned Counsel appearing on behalf of M/s Indus Law Firm in W.P.Nos.8716 and 8717 of 2023; Sri Srinivasa Rao Narra, learned Counsel for the Writ Petitioners in W.P.No.9526 of 2023; W.P.No.9547 of 2023; W.P.No.9553 of 2023; W.P.No.9569 _ of 2023; W.P.No.13916 of 2023; W.P.No.14021 of 2023; W.P.No.14582 of 2023 and W.P.No.15725 of 2023; Sri Ravi Kiran Ponnuru, learned Counsel for the Writ Petitioners in W.P.No.13541 of 2023 and W.P.No.13542 of 2023; Sri M.S.R. Chandra Murthy, learned Standing Counsel for NREGS and Sri Y.B. Ramesh, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Services-IV.

2. Ld. Counsel for the Parties has placed on record the Memo bearing No.PRR05-39021 / 193/2023-HOD SHG SEC-CORD, dated 07.11.2023 indicating that the counselling_ has been undertaken by the Official Respondents on various dates as indicated in the schedule starting from 07.11.2023 to 17.11.2023. During the course of hearing, the attention of this Court has been drawn to the preference' that is indicated in the Proceedings (dated 07.11.2023) issued by the Official Respondents, which is sought to be adopted in the counselling process for various categories. The Counsel for the Writ Petitioners stoutly oppose this preference' on the ground that it leads to invidious discrimination against the Writ Petitioners.

3. Sri M.S.R. Chandra Murthy, Ld. Standing Counsel for NREGS, on instructions, has submitted that the Official Respondents have also decided to do away with the practice of `preference' that is sought to be given in respect of various categories and that all the participants shall be treated equally basing on seniority.

2

4. Since the counselling is scheduled to be held between 14.11.2023 and 15.11.2O23 as per the S1.No.47 of counselling schedule, this Court deems it appropriate to direct the - Official Respondents to permit the Writ Petitioners to participate in the counselling. This Court further directs that the Official Respondents shall not observe the preference' in categories as mentioned in its Proceedings dated 07.11.2023. It is further directed that all the participants shall be treated equally without following any preference' whatsoever in the process of counselling. This counselling shall apply to the posts of Technical Assistants and Computer Operators-cum-Accountants.

6. It is further directed that insofar as the Assistant Programme Officers are concerned, since the Ld.

(i) The Official Respondents are directed to consider the cases of the Assistant Programme Officers and Engineering Consultants by considering their Representations, if any, submitted during the course of counselling, and to post them at a vacancy at any nearby place, taking into consideration their seniority, age, family necessity and health and post them in convenient district.
