For the State : G.A.-IX ---------- 2 28.10.2009 Petitioners of all these cases have challenged the decision of the High Powered Committee holding their appointment as illegal/forged. The High Powered Committee was constituted in terms of the order of the Division Bench of this Court dated 26.6.2006 passed in LPA - 2 - No. 946 of 2003 and other analogues cases. The said decision of the High Powered Committee in respect of other identically situated petitioners fell for consideration before a Bench of this Court in CWJC No. 6575 of 2009 and other analogous cases and this Court by order dated 6.10.2009 has struck down the said decision as well as the order of termination of the petitioners and has directed the respective petitioners to be reinstated in service with all consequential benefits with effect from the date of termination. It is agreed at the Bar that the cases of these petitioners are also identical to the cases of the petitioners in whose respect the said decision of this Court was rendered by the said order dated 6.10.2009. In the circumstances, these writ applications are also disposed of in terms of the said order dated 6.10.2009 passed in CWJC No. 6575 of 2009 and other analogous cases and the directions contained in the said order shall govern the cases of these petitioners also.
