DATED DATED DATED : 16th November, 2005. : 16th November, 2005. : 16th November, 2005. P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: 1. We have heard Shri Suresh Kumar, learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and the learned counsel appearing for the respondents. The main submission of Shri Suresh Kumar is that the impugned order of the Tribunal is contrary to the ratio of the judgment of the Supreme Court in Union of India v/s. Mohan Pal and others, reported in (2002) 2 S.C.C. page 573. We, however, find from the impugned judgment that the Tribunal has made reference to Mohan Pal’s case (supra) in paragraph 8 of the judgment and thereafter passed the following order: ""10. Accordingly, in our considered view even if respondents deny the scheme of 10.09.1993 applicable to the applicants on account of continuous service put in by : 2 : 2 : 2 : applications, they deserve to be considered for regularisation. Respondents are directed to consider the applicants for regularisation provided they fulfill all the conditions enforceable for employment under relevant recruitment rules. This exercise shall be carried out within a period of two months from the date of receipt of copy of this order." Having applied its mind to judgment of the Supreme Court in Mohan Pal’s case, the Tribunal has given the above direction. The above direction merely directs the petitioners to consider the case of the respondents for regularisation provided they fulfill all the conditions of relevant recruitment rules. Therefore, there is no need to interfere with the impugned order of the Tribunal. Besides, the impugned order is dated 27th August 2004. The action contemplated by the said order was to be taken within a period of two months. The present petition is filed on 17th January 2005 i.e. after expiry of the said period of two months. In such circumstances, we are unable to entertain the petition. Petition is dismissed with the above observations. (Smt.Ranjana Desai, J.) (Abhay S.Oka, J.)
