J U D G M E N T The issue pertains to appointment to the post of Lecturers/Senior Lecturers in District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), in various Districts. Learned Government Pleader submits that steps are being taken to frame the Special Rules. In the judgment dated 29.5.2006 in O.P.No.21744/2000, this Court has already directed to finalise the Special Rules within six months from the date of receipt of a copy of the said judgment. Until the Special Rules are promulgated as above, the interim orders passed in the cases will continue. Since the ranked list has already expired, in order to avoid difficulties at the DIET centres, ad-hoc appointments may be made from the seniority list of lecturers now in operation. The writ petitions are disposed of as above.
