p. 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF ORISSA AT CUTTACK W.P.(C) No. 252 of 2025 CORAM: JUSTICE SASHIKANTA MISHRA ORDER 08.01.2025 1. This matter is taken up through hybrid mode. 2. An advertisement was issued on 19.12.2014 for engagement of Anganwadi Worker of Kaibarta Sahi Anganwadi Centre under C.D.P.O, GOP in the district of Puri. The petitioner was working as Anganwadi Helper of the same center at the relevant time. She was one of the applicants. It is her case that no selection process pursuant to said advertisement was initiated. It is submitted that the petitioner apprehends that her experience as Anganwadi Helper may not be taken into consideration while selecting the candidates. 3. This Court finds that the apprehension of the petitioner as above seems to be ill-founded inasmuch as the authorities are expected to act in pursuance of the guidelines issued by the Government relating to engagement of Anganwadi Workers providing for considering the experience gained by the person as Anganwadi Helper. 4. The writ application is therefore, disposed of directing the CDPO, Gop (Opp. Party No.5) to conclude the selection process in Kabita Mahapatra @ Behera .… Petitioner Represented by Mr. H.Mohapatra, Advocate - Versus - State of Odisha & Ors .… Opp. Parties Represented by Addl. Government Advocate Order No. 15. . p. 2 accordance with law. In doing so, the candidature of the petitioner along with her experience as Anganwadi Helper shall also be taken into consideration.
