VIJAY KUMAR RAJAK Vs. STATE OF JHARKHAND

JUDGEMENT

(1.) ALL the petitioners were appointed purely on temporary basis, vide order dated 8th December 1994, with the stipulation that their services may be terminated any time, even prior to the expiry of three months. However, petitioners were allowed to work till June 1998. Petitioners were not paid their wages, therefore, petitioners had earlier filed C.W.J.C. No.3757 of 1997(R), which was disposed of vide order dated 19.07.1999. This Court, in the order dated 19.07.1999, has observed as under:

(2.) I have heard learned counsel for the parties and carefully perused the record. Mr. Mehta, learned counsel for the petitioners has vehemently argued that findings of the Deputy Commissioner, in the impugned order, to the effect that reservation policy was not followed while granting appointment to the petitioners, is perverse and without any basis. Undisputedly, petitioners were appointed initially for three months purely on temporary basis, with the condition that their services can be terminated at any time, even before expiry of three months. Perusal of the impugned order, reveals that while granting appointment to the petitioners, no selection committee was ever appointed and the then Deputy Commissioner has given appointment to the petitioner, without following the reservation policy and procedure provided for the appointment. This Court, in order dated 19.07.1999, has refused to issue the mandamus, in favour of the petitioners, commanding the respondents to regularise the services of the petitioners. Moreover, order dated 19.07.1999 has attained finality.
