By way of instant petition, petitioner has approached this Court in the instant proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, praying therein to issue directions to respondents to provide him employment in HPPCL as per Clause 6 of the Agreement entered inter se HPPCL and Government of Himachal Pradesh, whereby it specifically came to be agreed inter se parties that one member of project affected families will be provided employment.

(2.) Precisely, the grouse of the petitioner as has been highlighted in the petition and further canvassed by Mr. Rajinder Singh, Advocate is that though AC to DC Kinnaur at Reckong Peo had been repeatedly requesting General Manager HPPCL for providing employment to the petitioner under Rehabilitation Scheme, but no action is being taken.
