In the present case a limited grievance has been raised that the Government has delayed in absorption of the petitioner on the regular establishment against the vacant post. The counsel for the petitioner submits that on the basis of the Government policy decision it was decided to regularise the service of the employees who were working as daily wager in the office of the Collectorate and its subordinate offices. In pursuance thereof 1391 vacancies were identified, but the panel has been prepared consists of

Patna High Court CWJC No.18485 of 2013 dt.22-04-2016 2/2 410 persons divided into four categories, namely, priority no. 1 having panel 160 persons, priority no. 2 having panel 62 persons, priority no. 3 having panel 39 persons and priority no. 4 having penal 193 persons. The claim of the petitioner submits that the name of petitioner is standing in the list at priority no. 4. Only the prayer has been made that process of absorption should be expedited and service of the petitioner should be regularised.

In such view of the matter, the case of petitioner will be considered for regularisation when his turn will come. It is expected that the Collector, Patna would expedite the process of regularisation if the sufficient vacancies are available in the Collectorate and its subordinate offices. It goes without saying that the Collector will ensure the reservation policy in its letter and spirit, will carry out the absorption taking care of roster point.

With the above observation/direction, this petition is disposed of.
