KRISHNA KUMAR Vs. STATE OF U.P.

Decided On July 16, 2008
KRISHNA KUMAR Appellant
V/S
STATE OF U.P. Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD the learned Counsel for the parties.The petitioner was appointed as a peon in the year 1997 and is working in that capacity since then. The petitioner applied for regularisation of his services which was rejected by the impugned order on the ground that there is a ban imposed by the State Government on fresh appointment. The petitioner being aggrieved by the said order has filed the present writ petition.

(2.) IN my opinion, the impugned order cannot be sustained. Presuming that the State Government had imposed a ban, the said ban can only be operative for fresh appointment and cannot come in the way for regularisation of the services of an existing employee.
