INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith with the consent of the parties.

(2.) The Petitioner has prayed for the following substantive relief/s:-

(3.) The Petitioner has been appointed as Executive Officer (Legal) with the first Respondent purely on contractual basis on such post which is temporary, in terms of the advertisement dtd. 8/7/2015. The Petitioner is primarily aggrieved by the Communication/Order dtd. 13/3/2026 (Impugned Communication/Order). This was to the effect that his tenure as Executive Officer (Legal) for a period of one year w.e.f. 24/4/2025 had come to an end on 23/4/2026. Accordingly, he would not be given any further extension, to his appointment. The Petitioner has assailed the said Impugned Communication/Order along with his prayer seeking regularization in his post of Executive Officer (Legal) and/or Deputy Registrar (Legal), which forms the fulcrum of the proceedings.
