ORDER :

(M) D.DIS.NO.1806/2012/C5,- The Manager (Personal), Visakha Refinery, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd., Visakhapatnam requested the District Authority to verify the genuineness of the caste of their employee of Sri.Thomorothu Kurma Rao s/o late Ramulu who is claiming ST-Konda Kapu. As per the organization request initially the matter has been referred to the MRO, Visakhaptnam who submitted his report stating that Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao does not belongs to Konda Kapu caste but he belongs to Plain Kapu and further requested to refer the case to the Sub Collector, Paderu. Accordingly, the same was referred to the Sub Collector, Paderu, who in turn after conducting enquiry has reported that there is no family with the surname of "Thomurothu" has been resided in Paderu Division and hence it is a false caste certificate. As such, the then District Collector, Viskahaptnam requested the HPCL authorities to take action against the said employee. Accordingly, HPCL has initiated action against the individual by issuing Charge Sheet and conducted domestic enquiry in the matter and found guilty of the charges leveled against him.

Aggrieved by the disciplinary action of HPCL, Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao has filed a Writ Petition No.7225/1999 against l).the District Collector, Visakhapatnam, 2).the Visakha Refinery, rep by its GM, HPCL, Visakhapatnam and 3).the Chief Material Manager, Visakha Refinery, HPCL, Visakhapatnam with a prayer that, the order or direction of the District Collector, Visakhapatnam vide RC.N0.11868/87/TW DT: 12.09.1989 as illegal, arbitrary and without jurisdiction and the same may be set aside and further to direct, the 2nd respondent company to drop all further proceedings against the petitioner in pursuance of the District Collector order in RC.N0.11868/87/ TW DT: 12.09.1989. The WP No.72725/1999 has been disposed vide order dt.22-8-2006. The operative part of the said order (para 5 & 6 ) are as follows:

"Para 5: it is obvious that the District Collector, who is the competent authority

at the relevant point of time to cancel the caste certificate, did not cancel the

caste certificate of the petitioner as such.

Para 6: Therefore, though there are reasons to find the Caste certificate to

be defective or fake by the competent authority; until the same culminate

into an actual order of cancellation by the competent authority, i.e., the District

Collector, subject to the further enquiry, as per the procedure prescribed under

G.O.Ms.No.282, dated.19.12.1980, no further orders can be passed in the

present Writ Petition. However, if any further proceedings are to be initiated,

the procedure prescribed under the Regulation of SC Act 16 of 1980, which

came into force since 16th May 1997, has to be followed. Since no procedure

either under G.O.Ms.No.282, dated 19.12.1988, or under the S.C. Act 16 of

1980 Act has been followed, no further orders need be passed in this writ

petition."

Pursuant to the orders of the Hon'ble High Court in WP 7225/1995 dt.22-8-2006, the Chief Manger- HR, HPCL, Visakhapatnam requested the District Collector to cause enquiry and to issue orders. As such, the then Collector, Visakhapatnam has referred the said matter to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam and requested to enquire on caste and social status of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao. Accordingly, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam has submitted his report vide reference 4th read above. The report of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam reveals that,

A. Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao has attended for enquiry on 16.09.2012 and deposed that his forefathers are native of Saripalli village of Paderu Mandal and migrated to Vizianagaram for their livelihood and settled in Vizianagaram.

He further stated that, he was joined in HPCL during the year 1979 as Head Man and presently working there only. During the course of enquiry he has given his family tree as detailed below.

B. During the enquiry the following Xerox documents were submitted by Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao in support his claim.

1. Caste Certificate issued by the then Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam D.Dis.No.2205/81/A4 Dt.15.07.1981.

2. Caste certificate issued by the then Tahsildar, Visakhpatnam vide Rc.No.2020/ 78 Dt.28.06.1978.

3. TC issued by the Head Master, Mrs.A.V.N. High School, Visakhapatnam.

C. During the enquiry, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam has noticed that, the family members of Sri T.Kurma Rao are not belong toANDHRA PRADESH GAZETTE, July 3, 2018 5 ST-Kondakapu and they belongs to OC and moreover the wife of Sri T.Kurma Rao and his children are also not claimed the Caste of ST and all are belong to OC community and living under the social status of OC (Kapu).

D. Sri T.Kurma Rao has not produced any documentary evidence to show that, he belongs to ST-Konda Kapu community except the old certificate issued earlier by the then Tahsildar and T.C. Therefore it shows that Sri T.Kurma Rao himself obtained the Job in the category of ST quota fraudulently and enjoying the benefits.

E. The Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam finally opined that, it is a fit case to place the matter before the DLSC as per the norms specified under G.O.Ms.No.58/SW (J) Dept., Dt.12.05.1997 to take further suitable action.

On considering the report of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam and according to the Section 5 (1) of the Andhra Pradesh (Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribes & Backward Class Regulation of Issue of Community Certificate Act, 16 of 1993 read with Rule 9 of the AP (SC, ST & BCs) Regulation of Issue of Community Certificate Act, 1997, the Caste Status claim of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu has been referred to the District Level Scrutiny Committee under the Chairmanship of the Joint Collector, Visakhapatnam for scrutiny and enquiry and to submit it's findings/ recommendations.

In pursuance to the above instructions of the District Collector, Visakhapatnam, the Joint Collector & Chairman, DLSC Committee has issued notice in form-VI to the individual vide reference 5th read above with a request to attend for hearing on 21.12.2013 before the committee and to furnish the documentary evidence in support of his community claim. On 21.12.2013, Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu has appeared before the committee and stated that, his parents belong to ST Community and his forefathers are native of Saripalli Village of Paderu Mandal. But, he did not shown any documentary evidence to prove his caste. During the course of enquiry, the DLSC has obtained the reports on caste status from the Tahsildar, Paderu and Tahsildar, Visakhaptnam Urban.

The Tahsildar, Paderu has reported vide reference 6th read above that, the fore fathers of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu were once resided in Saripalli Village of Paderu Mandal and subsequently they migrated from the Village and the villagers of Sariapalli village have stated that, they were not aware of the caste status of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu and place of migration of his forefathers.

The Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam Urban has reported vide reference 7th read above that,

1. Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu, is a resident of D.No: 14-50, Vijaya Sai Enclave, Simhachalam Depot, Gopalapatnam Visakhapatnam.

2. His parents native place is Edurupalli Village of Paderu Mandal. His father was a blacksmith worker. His mother was a house wife.

3. They have migrated from Paderu to Vizianagaram and further to Visakhapatnam for eking of their livelihood. Since his parents migrated at 2 years of his age from Paderu to Visakhapatnam city and settled in the city, the individual does not know about the customs & habits of Kondakapu community.

4. The individual admitted in a statement that he never visited his native place (Paderu) during his lifetime. He has completed his primary & secondary education in Visakhapatnam. In the school records his caste was registered as ST-Kondakapu. Based on the school records & Transfer Certificates (TC), the individual might have been obtained ST-Kondakapu caste certificate from Taluk office Visakhapatnam vide RC.NO.2020/78, DT:28.06.1978.

5. Based on the said certificate, the individual has again obtained ST-Kondakapu caste certificate vide D.DIS.NO:2205/81/A4, DT: 15.07.1981. Based on these two certificates, the individual might have obtained employment in HPCL under ST reservation.

6. Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao is married to Smt.Bhavani who belongs to Kapu community and she is a house wife. They are blessed with two children namely T.Vinod Kumar and T.Venkata Tulasi lakshmi. He never utilized ST reservation to his children education. Further. Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu has also given written statement stating that he does not know about the customs & habits of Kondakapu community. His family members i.e., two brothers also married with OC Kapu community women. His daughter married with OC Kapu community person.

7. The relevant old records (office files) pertaining to the certificates said to be issued from Tahsildar, Visakhaptnam are not traced in the record room of Tahsildar's Office, Visakhapatnam despite diligent search. The Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam finally opinioned that, his caste status may be considered as Non ST community.

In pursuance to the reports of the Tahsildar, Paderu and Visakhapatnam Urban, the DLSC Committee has again called for hearing on 18.06.2016 for conduct of enquiry on the subject matter. The individual has appeared before the committee. While asking about the original caste certificate of the individual, Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu has stated that, the original certificate have been submitted to the HPCL authorities at the time of appointment. As such, a letter has been addressed to HPCL authorities for production / supply the original caste certificate of the individual.

In response to the request of the Joint Collector & Chairman, DLSC, Visakhapatnam, the Deputy General Manager, HPCL, Visakha Refinery, Visakhapatnam has stated that, the statement of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu that he has submitted the original certificates to HPCL authorities at the time of appointment is "False", as they do not have any practice of obtaining the original certificates from their employees and retaining them for any period or reason.

The following are the copies of documents submitted by the individual Sri.K.Kurma Rao in support of his caste claim.

On perusal the reports of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam, Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam Urban & Paderu, the Deputy General Manager, HPCL, Visakha Refinery, Visakhapatnam and as per the documentary evidence submitted by the Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu at the time of hearings, the DLSC Committee has submitted the it's findings as follows

1. On perusing, the above documents , it is observed that, the Caste mentioned in the School certificates was based on the declaration submitted by his Parents/Guardian. The caste certificates produced by the individual are copies of the caste certificates. There are no original caste certificates8 ANDHRA PRADESH GAZETTE, July 3, 2018 submitted by the individual. Hence, those documents cannot be taken into consideration.

2. As per the statement given by the individual and report submitted by the Revenue Divisional Officer, it is noticed that, no family member in the entire family of Sri T.Kurma Rao has married Konda Kapu caste people. All family members had matrimonial relations with plain Kapu people only. Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao wife also belongs to Kapu community only. Even the daughter of Sri.T.Kurmarao has also married to a Kapu community person.

The marriage relations of himself and his family members, clearly prove that, he is not following any tribal customs.

3. During enquiry by the DLSC, he did not submit any proof (or) Document that he belongs to Konda Kapu Community.

4. Nor he produced any of his family members caste certificates that they belong Konda Kapu community.

5. Nor he brought any of his relatives caste certificates for the DLSC enquiry that they belong to Konda Kapu community.

6. No documentary evidence produced by him during the complete enquiry.

In view of the above, the DLSC opined that,

"the certificates produced by the individual had no validity and are not

reliable. The family tree itself speaks that, the entire family members

undergone matrimonial relations with plain Kapu people only. And there is

no documentary evidence to show that he belongs to Konda Kapu. Hence

recommended for cancellation of ST Konda Kapu certificate issued to Sri

T.Kurma Rao in 1978 and 1981 by the Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam Urban

and 1976 certificate by members of Legislative council."

Based on the above findings / recommendations of the District Level Scrutiny Committee, Visakhapatnam and according to the Section 5 (1) of the Andhra Pradesh (SC, ST & BCs) Regulation of Issue of Community Certificate Act, 1993, a show cause notice has been issued to Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu on 19.01.2017 while enclosing a copy DLSC findings for submission of his representation / explanation on the findings / recommendations of the DLSC within seven days from the date of receipt of the show cause notice.

In response to the above show cause notice, Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu has submitted his explanation vide reference 11th read above, stating that .........

a) He came from poor family and in the year 1960 when he was admitted into Sri.Rama UP School and his caste was recorded as "Konda Kapu-" and in Transfer Certificate also the Head Mistres, AVNC High School, his caste was recorded as "Konda Kapu"

b) In the year 1978, the Tahsildar, Visakhaptnam issued "Konda Kapu" Certificate dt.30-10-78 to him.

c) In the year 1976, the then MLC Mr.M.A.Reddy issued " konda Kapu" certificate to him

d) After due process of selection by HPCL authorities, he was selected and got job as Security Guard in a scale of Rs.725/- per month as Visakha Refinery. At the time of his appointment he has produced all the original record and his caste Konda Kapu ST certificate dated 30-10-1978 which was issued by the Tahsildar,

e) He received a communication dt.26-6-1989 from the Administration of HPCL authorities directing him to produce his caste certificates in original, accordingly he has submitted his original caste certificates issued by then MLC Mr.M.A.Reddy and another certificate dated 30-7-1981 issued by the Tahsildar, Viskhapatnam.

f) He served with a departmental charge sheet dt.2-1-1993 by HPc authorities wherein it was stated that as per the enquiry and order of the Distract Collector dt. 12-9-1989, it is revealed that he had secured employment by producing false caste certificate on that he has submitted his written explanation to his employer along with school record and caste certificates.

The said enquiry concluded holding that he had produced false certificate at the time of his admission and the HPCL authorities have issued a letter dt.16-3-1994 by giving an opportunity by granting one month time to prove his case. He was never served the order of the District Collector or the reports of the Tahsildar, Visakhaptnam and the Sub Collector , Paderu basing on which the Collector passed order dt.12-9-1989.Aggrieved by the said order of the Dist. Collector dt.12-9-1989 he filed WP 7225/1995. The Hon'ble High Court disposed the WP vide order dt.22-8- 1996.( as explained in 2nd para)10 ANDHRA PRADESH GAZETTE, July 3, 2018 g) He also submitted that he was born on 29-1-1954 and his caste and other particulars are given by his parents to the concerned authorities, accordingly the same was recorded in the school certificates and also subsequent to the educational records.

h) He also stated that the reports of the Sub Collector and the Tashildar, Paderu prove that his fore fathers were once resided in Saripalli village of Paderu mandal and subsequently they migrated from the village, as such, he averred that the findings of the above officers prove that his forefathers/parents are residents of Paderu, as such his caste was mentioned as 'Kondakapu" i) He further stated that the report of the Tahsidlar, Visakhapatnam speaks that the individual (T.Kurma rao s/o Ramulu) is a resident of Simhachalam, and his parents native place was Edurupalli of Paderu mandal. His father was a blacksmith worker, his mother was a hose wife and they have migrated from Paderu to Vizianagaram and further to Visakhapatnam to eak out their livelihood. Since, his parents migrated at the age of 2 years of the individual, he does not know about the customs and habits of Konda kapu caste. He averred that the report of the Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam established the fact that his parents are residents of Paderu and subsequently came down to Visakhapatnam for their livelihood as such his parents recorded his caste as "ST- Kondakapu". He further averred that the revenue officials observations and their reports are in his favour .He also submitted that he has performed the marriage of his daughter. His son aged about 32 years who is an unemployee and suffering with hearing loss

j) The individual has quoted different sections of Indian Evidence Act and also IPC and also some citations and rulings of the Hon'ble High Court in support of his case and finally requested to set aside the order passed by the DLSC and confirm his caste is as " ST Konda Kapu and to issue necessary proceedings to all concerned officers including HPCL authorities as otherwise he will be put to irreparable loss and hardship.

After receiving his written explanation, again a notice has been issued to the certificate holder i.e., Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu in order to provide another opportunity to the claimant to safeguard the principles of natural justice to prove his case with a request to attend before the Collector, Visakhapatnam on 19-5-2018 at 11.00 AM in Collector's Office, Visakhapatnam for making aANDHRA PRADESH GAZETTE, July 3, 2018 11 representation or any evidences if he wishes as per the Section 5 (1) of the Andhra Pradesh (SC, ST & BCs) Regulation of Issue of Community Certificate Act, 1993, Accordingly, the certificate holder i.e., Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu along with his counsel has attended before me on 19-5-2018 at 11.00 AM in Collector's Office, Visakhapatnam. Sri.A.RamMohan, Advocate, Visakhapatnam has filed Vakalat on behalf of the claimant. The counsel has reiterated the contents of the written explanation submitted by the individual dt.13-3-2017 . The counsel further argued that at the time of childhood of the Sri. Thomortholu Kurma Rao, his parents got recorded the caste as "ST-Kondakapu" in school records, as such, there is no fault of the individual in this regard and also submitted that the individual has already retired from service due to attaining the age of superannuation and his retirement benefits have not been settled so far due to pendency of caste enquiry and it is unjust to enquire about his case after his retirement and finally requested to consider the written explanation and also citations mentioned therein and set aside the order passed by the DLSC and confirm his caste is as " ST Konda Kapu in the interest of justice.

The written explanation of Sri.Thumurothu Kurma Rao and the arguments of his counsel have been taken into consideration and examined. In his written explanation the individual contended that "that the reports of the Sub Collector and the Tashildar, Paderu prove that his fore fathers were once resided in Saripalli village of Paderu mandal and subsequently they migrated from the village, as such, he averred that the findings of the above officers prove that his forefathers/parents are residents of Paderu, as such his caste was mentioned as 'Kondakapu" His contention that as per the reports of Sub Collector & Tahdildar, Pader his forefathers/parents are residents of Saripalli village in Paderu mandal may be correct but his further contention that his forefather/ parents being residents of Saripalli village in Paderu mandal their case was mentioned as " ST- Konda Kapu" is not acceptable and this argument does not stand for litmus test. It is pertinent to note that a good number of non-trials have been residing in different pockets of Agency area covered by 11 mandals in Paderu division (including in Paderu mandal) since ancient times but due to their mere residence in agency area they can not claim that their caste as tribal category.

He also argued that since, his parents migrated at the age of 2 years of the individual, he does not know about the customs and habits of Kondakapu (ST) caste is also not acceptable. While he is claiming his case status as KondaKapu(ST) even in plain areas, he ought to have the knowledge of customs and habits of the said caste which are supposed to be observed by him wherever he resides.

It is astonishing to note that though Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu has been claiming Konda Kapu(ST) caste status and obtained Konda Kapu(ST) Certificates form the Taahildar, Visakhaptnam and obtained job in HPCL by virtue of those caste certificates , he did not choose to claim his own caste to his two own children (son & daughter). He also not stated about his own brothers and sisters and their caste status or atleast he has not mentioned about any of his relatives and their caste status. This observation itself speaks a volume about the genuineness of the caste claim (ST-Konda Kapu) of the individual Sri.T.kurma Rao.

Moreover the individual has failed to produce the original certificates either before the DLSC or before this authority. His contention that he has handed over his original caste certificates to HPCL authorities at the time of his joining in HPC is proved to be false since in response to the request of the Joint Collector & Chairman, DLSC, Visakhapatnam, the Deputy General Manager, HPCL, Visakha Refinery, Visakhapatnam has stated that, " the statement of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu that he has submitted the original certificates to HPCL authorities at the time of appointment is "False", as they do not have any practice of obtaining the original certificates from their employees and retaining them for any period or reason".

The argument of the counsel that at the time of childhood of the Sri. Thomortholu Kurma Rao, his parents have given the particulars of their caste etc., to the concerned authorities and accordingly the same was recorded in the school certificates and also subsequent to the educational records, as such, , there is no fault of the individual in this regard is not acceptable. This contention does not stand for legal scrutiny since the claimant is the ultimate beneficiary by securing the ST-Konda Kapu certificate and by virtue of the same he got employment. He can not get any shelter by throwing the responsibility on his parents on the pretext that at his childhood his parents got recorded his caste as ST-Konda Kapu in school records. At least, the individual has not put forth any justified reason why the individual has not chosen to claim the same case (i.e.,ST- Konda kora) which is being claimed by him to his own two children. Moreover as per the family tree of Sri.Thomoruthu Kurma Rao (as reported by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Visakhapatnam) it is crystal clearly established that his own two children (Son & Daughter) belong to Kapu (caste) which is very astonishing and peculiar.

The delinquent has not put forth any evidences/proofs regarding anthropological and ethnological traits, deities, rituals, customs, mode of marriages, death ceremonies/ method of burial of dead bodies etc., which are being observed by them on par with real Konda Kapu (ST) people in support of his caste claim. Though, the burden ofANDHRA PRADESH GAZETTE, July 3, 2018 13 proof of his caste status lies on him, the individual Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao has miserable failed to do so. Further, the individual has quoted different sections of Indian Evidence Act and also IPC and also some citations and rulings of the Hon'ble High Court in support of his case which are irrelevant to the case on hand.

After hearing the individual and his counsel and on considering the contents of the explanation of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao, and on perusal of the material placed before me, taking into consideration of recommendations of the District Level Scrutiny Committee, Visakhapatnam and in the absence of substantive evidences on part of the certificate holder , I have no hesitation to accept the recommendation of the DLSC.

I am of the opinion that, Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu does not belongs to ST -Konda Kapu , as such, the certificates held by the individual deserve cancellation.

In view of the of the reasons explained above and in exercise of the powers conferred under Section 5 (1) of the Andhra Pradesh (Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Backward Classes) Regulation of Issue of Community Certificate Act 1993 read with rule 9 (7) of the Andhra Pradesh (Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Backward Classes) Regulation of Issue of Community Certificate Rules, 1997, the ST Konda Kapu caste certificate said to have been issued by the Tahsildar, Visakhapatnam vide RC.NO.2020/78 dt:28.06.1978 & D.DIS.N0.2205/81/A4 DT: 15.07.1981 and MLC on 07.07.1976 infavour of Sri Thomurothu Kurma Rao S/o Ramulu is hereby cancelled with immediate effect.

A notification to this effect shall be published in the District Extra ordinary Gazettee.
