Having taking into account that the prayer of the petitioner for payment of his salary in this writ application is fully covered by the judgment and order dated 17.7.2000 in CWJC No. 3299 of 1999, inasmuch as, in that writ application also, the petitioner, while seeking the relief of quashing of the order dated 17.2.1998 adjusting his services on the Museum Keeper had also made a specific prayer for payment of arrears of his salary for the same period i.e. 10.10.1985 to 17.2.1998 as also prayed in this writ application this Court in view of outright dismissal of the aforesaid 2 earlier writ petition C.W.J.C. No. 3299 of 1999 will have no option but to hold that this writ application is completely barred by the settled principles of res judicata as also constructive res judicata. From perusal of the judgment dated 17.7.2000 in the earlier writ5 petition of this very petitioner being C.W.J.C. No 3299 of 1999 it is clear that his claim for payment of salary along with other relief was rejected by the learned single Judge, while dismissing the aforesaid CWJC No. 3299 of 1999 by an order dated 17th July, 2000 which was also affirmed by the Division Bench on 22.12.2008 while dismissing his LPA No. 1147 of 2000. Since these facts are admitted, this Court will have no option but to hold that this writ application is not maintainable. It is, accordingly, dismissed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
