For Petitioners Shri Somkant Verma, Advocate.
For Respondents/State Shri R.K. Mishra, Dy. A.G.
Hon'ble Shri Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra Order On Board 12/12/2017
1. Learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners are working as Peon prior to 31.12.1997, therefore, their cases were considered and they were regularized. However, the said order of regularization was withdrawn on 28.09.2012. Challenging this order the petitioners had preferred WPS No. 1856 of 2015 and other writ petitions in which petitioners were not granted any relief, however, it was observed that the disposal of the writ petitions would not preclude the respondents' authority in considering the case of the petitioners afresh.
2. On the above basis, Shri Somkant Verma, learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the respondents should have considered the petitioners' representation for regularization afresh, but despite lapse of more than two years period such consideration has not
been made on the basis of State Government's circular 05.03.2008.
3. Considering the entire facts situation of the case, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction that in the event, petitioners prefer a fresh representation with a 4 weeks to seek regularization of their services on the strength of State Government's circular dated 05.03.2008, the competent authority shall consider and decide the representation by speaking order, at the earliest, preferably within a period of 4 weeks from the date of representation.
4. The writ petitions are accordingly disposed of.
5. It is made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the case and the respondent authorities shall decide the matter, on its own merits, strictly in accordance with law, without treating any observation made in this order, as opinion on the merits of the case.
