Kailash Sharma --Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others --Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE PERMOD KOHLI. Present:- Mr. H.N. Khanduja, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. R.S. Kundu, Addl. A.G., Haryana. *** PERMOD KOHLI.J (ORAL) The petitioner was appointed as Hindi Teacher through the Employment Exchange on temporary/ad hoc basis w.e.f. 20.8.1971. His services were, however, dispensed with on 19.2.1972 and again re-engaged from 21.2.1972 up to 6.6.1972. Later the petitioner was appointed on 5.3.1973 and continued up to 19.5.1973 as J.B.T teacher. Her services were later regularized w.e.f. 1.1.1980. Petitioner retired from service on 31.3.2008. The grievance of the petitioner is that her entire service including the spells of ad hoc service have not been taken into consideration for purposes of the pensionary benefits. From the reply also, it appears that a part of the ad hoc service has been taken into consideration, whereas entire ad hoc service has not been counted towards qualifying service. In view of the provisions of Rule 3.17-A Chapter 3of the Punjab Civil Services Rules, Vol.II as applicable to the State of Haryana the entire ad hoc spells of the service are to be counted towards the qualifying service. CWP. No. 17855 of 2008 -2- This petition is, accordingly, allowed. Respondents are directed to include the ad hoc spells of service towards the qualifying service and determine the service/pensionary benefits of the petitioner within a period of three months from the date certified copy of this order is served upon the competent authority.
