...Petitioners

Versus

State of Haryana and Others

...Respondents

CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ARUN MONGA

Present:

None for the petitioners.

Mr. R.D. Sharma, Deputy Advocate General, Haryana. ***** ARUN MONGA, J. (ORAL) Petition was filed in the year 2001, inter alia, for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents to fix 8 hours working period daily for the petitioners at par with other similarly situated ad hoc and regular employees and seeking directions to the respondents to regularize services of the petitioner No.1, who as per him was eligible and fully covered under instructions dated 07.03.1996 read with instructions dated 18.03.1996 (Annexures P-1 and P-2 respectively) issued by respondent No.1.

2.

Petition was admitted on 11.12.2001.

3.

When called out for hearing, there is no representation on behalf of the petitioners. It seems that by sheer effluxion of time and pendency of the writ petition for more than 20 years before this Court, it has been rendered infructuous and/or the petitioners seem to have lost interest in pursuing the same. 4.

Be that as it may, writ petition is disposed of as having been rendered infructuous with liberty to petitioners to file an appropriate application in case, any cause of action still survives.
