IN THE HON’BLE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA. Civil Writ Petition No. 1811 of 2007. Date of decision March 11, 2010. State of H.P. & others ….Petitioners. Versus Harish Chander ….Respondent. Coram: The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Dev Darshan Sud, J. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kuldip Singh, J. Whether approved for reporting?1 For the petitioner Mr. R.K.Sharma, Sr. A.G. with Mr. P.K.Sharma, Addl. AG. For the respondent Mr. Kulbhushan Khajuria, Advocate. Dev Darshan Sud, J. (Oral). The State is aggrieved by the judgment of the State Administrative Tribunal granting work charged status to the respondent with effect from 1.1.1999 including all consequential benefits flowing therefrom. On facts, there was no challenge to the fact that the applicant had completed 10 years continuous service with a minimum of 240 days in each calendar year. The Tribunal holds: ”As a result, the respondents are directed to appoint the applicant as work charged Chowkidar w.e.f. 1.1.1995 with all consequential 1 Whether Reporters of Local Papers are allowed to see the judgment? Yes. - 2 - benefits within six weeks of the passing of the order.” The contention of the learned Additional Advocate General based on Annexure R-1 filed before the Tribunal is that the Tribunal should have granted work charged status from 1.1.2000 and not from 1.1.1999. We do not find that this is a case which requires our intervention under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The Tribunal has rightly implemented the judgment of the Supreme Court in Mool Raj Upadhyay vs. State of H.P. ,1994 (2) S.L.R. 377. This petition is, therefore, dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. Pending application(s) shall stand dismissed and interim order(s) vacated. (Dev Darshan Sud), J. March 11, 2010(PC). (Kuldip Singh), J.
