IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.7836 of 2008 Date of Decision: 12.5.2008 Smt.Sumitra Devi Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K.C.PURI Present: Shri Dhiraj Chawla, Advocate for the petitioner Jasbir Singh, J. (Oral) Petitioner was taken in service as a guest faculty teacher. It is her case that she was entitled to get appointment on 21.12.2005, when, by ignoring her merit, respondent No.5, was taken in service. She made a complaint and after enquiry, she was ordered to be taken in service, after removing the candidate, who was wrongly selected. Petitioner joined as a guest faculty teacher on 13.11.2006. Now she is claiming salary for the period she remained out of service i.e. from 21.12.2005 to 12.11.2006. It is not in dispute that during period, referred to above, another candidate was working and salary has been paid to her. It is apparent from the records that there was some dispute with regard to place of residence of the petitioner, which was sorted out after enquiry and in view of that the authorities have stated that she is not entitled to pay for the period in dispute, in view of principle of no work no pay. We feel that the order passed is perfectly justified and is in consonance with the ratio of judgment Civil Writ Petition No.7836 of 2008 of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Union of India and another v. Tarsem Lal and others, (2006) 10 Supreme Court Cases 145. In view of facts mentioned above, we are not inclined to interfere at the instance of the petitioner. Dismissed.
