SANJAY KUMAR PANDEY Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) -Thus bunch of special appeals has been filed against the impugned judgment of a learned single Judge dated 10.7.2003. We have perused the impugned judgment and heard learned counsel for the parties.

(2.) THE writ petitioners filed writ petitions for regularisation on the post of junior clerk in the office of the Chief Electoral Office, Lucknow. THEy have also prayed for a writ of certiorari to quash the order of the District Chief Electoral Officer by which petitioner's representation regarding their claim for regularisation has been rejected.

(3.) IT is well-settled that regularisation cannot be claimed as a matter of right contrary to the statutory rules vide Division Bench of this Court in State of U. P. v. Irshad Ahmad, 2004 (2) AWC 1242 : 2004 ALJ 1100. This was also a case relating to an ad hoc employee appointed during election time temporarily, and hence this decision squarely applies to the present appeals also.
