Ram Shankar and others .....Petitioners versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.R.K.Dadwal, Advocate, for the petitioners. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioners have been denied regularization of their services on the plea that they have not completed 10 years of service on the cut off date, i.e., 10.4.2006 in terms of the Regularization Policy framed by the State Government. The petitioners, on the other hand, rely upon some documents to contend that they have been actually working with the respondents since the years 1984 and 1987 respectively. The plea taken on behalf of the petitioners is a question of fact, the correctness of which can be effectively ascertained by the respondents. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with liberty to the petitioners CWP No.993 of 2011 [2] to lodge a fresh claim alongwith the proof of their more than 10 years of service as on 10.4.2006. If such a representation is made by them, the competent authority is directed to consider the same strictly in accordance with the Government Policy. It shall also be open to the petitioners to seek regularization of their services in terms of the earlier policies issued by the State Government, provided that they fulfill the eligibility conditions laid down therein. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. August 16, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
