CWP No.16652 of 1999 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CWP No.16652 of 1999 Date of decision : 22-07-2010 Anil Kumar .... Petitioner VERSUS State of Haryana and another ....Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA Present: Mr. D.K. Nagar, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Himanshu Raj, AAG, Haryana. KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (Oral) Petitioner's grievance, as projected in the present writ petition, is that the State Government issued an advertisement for appointment of 414 Gram Sachiv in the year 1997. According to counsel for the petitioner, at that relevant time, it was incumbent upon the authorities to adhere to instructions, dated 30.08.1995, Annexure P-1/A, issued by the State Government and could have reserved 27% of posts for Backward Classes. Counsel states that instructions were not followed. Only 10% posts were reserved for Backward Classes. Therefore, petitioner could not be selected in pursuance of advertisement (Annexure P-1). Counsel for the State submits that the requisition for the posts was made in the year 1993. At that time, instructions of year 1979 were prevailing. It had prescribed 10% reservation for the Backward Classes. Therefore, subsequent instructions issued in the year 1995 were not followed qua the advertisement (Annexure P-1). CWP No.16652 of 1999 -2- Be that as it may, after 11 years of the selection, petitioner cannot be ordered to be appointed in the service of the State Govt. as he was not also in the waiting list. Therefore at such a belated stage, this Court cannot come to the rescue of the petitioner. Hence the present writ petition is dismissed. (KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA) 22-07-2010 JUDGE manju
