STATE OF UP Vs. MEWA LAL

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THOUGH there is some delay in filing the special appeal, but since the counsel for the respondents has no objection in condoning the delay, we condone the delay.

(2.) THE writ petition has been disposed of, by the learned Single Judge issuing a direction to the District Magistrate, Barabanki to consider the respondents' case for absorption, keeping in view the Government Order against the vacant post of Lekhpal and Collection Amins or against other vacant posts, expeditiously and preferably within a period of three months. A direction was also issued that while considering the respondents' case, the appellants (respondents in the writ petition) shall also provide age relaxation in accordance with rules/Government Orders.

(3.) IT was further observed, that since the respondents are retrenched employees of the Census Department and are running from pillar to post since 1991, they are entitled for absorption on appropriate post in view of the Government Orders dated 21.8.2007 and 9.10.2007.
