on the file of the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad, which was dismissed by order dated 23.10.2018. Her prayer in the said O.A. was only to direct the authorities to consider and pass appropriate orders on her representation dated 13.12.2017. The Tribunal however went into the contents of the said representation and opined that in the event the petitioner-applicant was aggrieved by any promotions given to others, she ought to have filed an appeal.

Sri K.R.Srinivas, learned counsel for the petitioner-applicant, would point out that the issue as regards promotions being effected in relation to other employees only formed part of the representation as the main grievance of the petitioner-applicant was that the post meant for hearing handicapped was kept vacant and that she was the only candidate who was eligible to be promoted thereto.
