ORDER
S.V.Bhatti, J.
Read orders dated 14.02.2023 and 20.03.2023. The Additional Secretary of Thrissur Municipal Corporation, who is full additional charge, is present in the Court. The Additional Secretary has placed before us the Resolution dated 10.04.2023 of the Council of Thrissur Municipal Corporation. The Council by the said resolution has resolved as follows:

2. From the above it is evident that the steps initiated by the Secretary pursuant to the directives of this Court have been approved by the Council. The said decision of the Council takes the matter to the next stage of issuing orders of appointment by the Secretary, Thrissur Municipal Corporation.
3. Government Pleader Mr Bejoy Chandran contends that the consideration as per Council decision No.84 dated 10.04.2023 should be restricted to the candidates sponsored by WA No.435/2022 & W.P.(C) No.33533/2022 -3- the Employment Exchange alone. As the submission is made, we are recording it, for the law is no more res integra with the principle laid down by the Supreme Court in Excise Superintendent Malkapatnam, Krishna District, A.P. v.
K.B.N.Visweshwara Rao and others1.
4. We have looked at the scheme of the duties and functions of the Municipal Corporation under the Act as well. Considering the stage at which we are issuing the directions, we are of the view that a direction be issued to the Secretary of the Thrissur Municipal Corporation to issue orders of appointment to all the candidates now selected, approved by the Council and placed before the Court, within ten days from today, under intimation to the Government.
The issue of the appointment of DLR/Contract Casual Sanitary workers in the subject corporation has been 1 1996 (6) SCC 216 WA No.435/2022 & W.P.(C) No.33533/2022 -4- considered at great length by us. We are treating the Writ Appeal and the Writ Petition as part heard.
Post on 26.05.2023.
