Ms. Akanksha Jain, Dy. Govt. Advocate Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order On Board 25.11.2020

1. The limited relief that the petitioners have sought is for an appropriate

direction to the respondents to consider the case of the petitioners for being regularized in service.

2. Counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have all been working with the respondents as contractual employee uninterruptedly for the last 10-15 years and that the nature of work discharge by the petitioners was regular in nature, therefore, the respondents should consider regularizing the services of the petitioners against the post that they are discharging. He further submits that the respondents have already constituted a Committee to scrutinize the claim of the petitioners seeking regularization and that the Committee also is said to have recommended the case of the petitioners for regularization. However, there is no further development in their case for regularization.

3. The limited prayer sought for by the petitioners is not opposed by the State counsel.

4. Given the said facts, the writ petition, at this juncture, stands disposed of directing the respondents to consider the grievance of the petitioners and pass an appropriate order in respect of the claim of the petitioners for being regularized in service at the earliest preferably within a period of 90 days from the date of receipt of copy of this order.

5. The writ petition accordingly stands disposed of. Sd/- P. Sam Koshy Judge Khatai
