IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.O.C.P. No. 978 of 1995 Date of Decision: July 18, 2011 Des Raj ….Petitioner Versus Sh. Lakhanpal and others. … Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ALOK SINGH 1. Whether reporters of local news papers may be allowed to see judgment? 2. To be referred to reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: None. Alok Singh, J. (Oral) I have gone through the record. The brief facts of the present case are that petitioner filed a Civil Writ Petition No. 10057 of 1994 for regularization of his services. Vide order dated 28.04.1995, this Court had directed the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner for regularization of his services in terms of the Policy instructions. The allegation of the petitioner is that Additional Director, Local Government (M), Punjab, issued order to deposit the keys of the Chief Vigilance Officer’s office and COCP No.978 of 1995 keys of the Gate of the Stairs with Shri Ajaib Singh, Chowkidar or Sh. Jaspal Singh, Senior Assistant. In reply, respondent Nos. 2 and 3 specifically averred that he (petitioner) sought the regularization of his services on the post of Chowkidar whereas there is no post of Chowkidar in the State Urban Development Agency (Nehru Rozgar Yojana Cell). The Governing body of the Agency sanctioned the post of Sweeper-cum-Chowkiedar and as such, the Employment Exchange was approached with requisition for sponsoring the names of suitable candidates for the post of Sweeper-cum-Chowkidar and not for the post of Chowkidar as sought to be made out by the petitioner in C.W.P. No. 10057 of 1994; there is no post of Chowkidar and he was only deputed to perform the duties of Chowkidar as stop-gap arrangement as Sh. Kuldip Chand, who was earlier performing the duties of Chowkidar on daily wages, proceeded on leave; there is only one post of Sweeper-cum- Chowkidar and not of Chowkidar, as averred, in the Nehru Rozgar Yojna of the State Urban Development Agency. Since, there is no regular post of Chowkidar, therefore, services of the petitioner cannot be regularized for the post of Chowkidar. Present petition was filed way back in 1995. None is present to press the petition. Moreover, if there is no post 2 COCP No.978 of 1995 of Chowkidar, therefore, there is no question of regularization. Dismissed.
