The petitionerswould submit that they are entitled to the benefit of G.O.(P) No.46/08/SWDdated 19-7-2008 and, therefore, they are eligible to be advised by the KeralaPublic Service Commission for regular appointment.

In respect of another employee included in Ext.P3 appointment order, this Court had in W.P.(C) No. 32258 of 2009 passed the following judgment:- “Petitioner claims to be a physically challengedwoman with 40% disability as certified in Ext.P1. The prayersought is to direct respondents 1 and 2 to commence theselection process for physically handicapped persons and fillup vacancies in the quota ear marked.
2. The standing counsel appearing for the PSC referredto Government Order GO(P) No.46/08/SWD dated 19-7-2008and submits that the Government have already directed thePSC to advise physically handicapped persons againstSl.Nos.33, 66, 99 out of 100 vacancies on out of turn basis. Itis stated that as and when any vacancy is available PSC will beinviting applications and if the petitioner is eligible for thesame application can be made in which event her candidaturewill be duly considered. This submission should redress thegrievance of the petitioner and it is directed that it will be opento the petitioner to submit her application as and when suitablevacancy is notified.
