The petitioner was appointed as a casual labour in the respondent University in the year 1988. Since then she has been discharging her duties. The learned counsel for the petitioner contended that though the petitioner is senior and there is a vacancy in the category of BC-B the case of the petitioner has not been considered. Hence, she prays to direct the respondents to consider her case. On the other hand, the learned standing counsel appearing for the respondents contended that the petitioner has not given any representation for absorption in the post of Class-IV category. The facts are not in dispute. Whether the petitioner is entitled to be absorbed in the post of Class-IV or whether any vacancy has arisen in the BC ‘B” category have to be decided by the respondents. So also the respondents have to decide the regularization of the casual employees basing on the seniority. Therefore, a direction is given to the petitioner to file an application to the respondents and the same shall have to be considered by the respondents as per rules in accordance with seniority within a period of two months from the date of receipt of the application of the petitioner. With the above directions, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. dsr ASSISTANT REGISTRAR To: 1.
